EMPLOYMENT LAW IN NEWCASTLE UPON TYNE

Employment law is an increasingly complex area and whether you are an employer or an employee we can guide you through the maze as well as provide no nonsense advice and solutions. 

 

Unfortunately problems do occur from time to time between the employer and employee in even the best run businesses. When they do, we will give you an honest appraisal of the situation with clear advice on how to deal with it efficiently and cost effectively. 

 

However not all employment queries are about problems within the working relationship. As an employer you may want to update your contracts and procedures as new legislation is implemented. As an employee you may need to understand how a new contract of employment works or whether you are eligible for certain employment rights. 

 

Some of the issues that crop up include, for example,
 

  • Harassment
  • Dismissal
  • Disciplinary hearings
  • Redundancies
  • Changes to employment contracts
  • Restrictive covenants
  • Employment contracts
  • Policies
  • Discrimination
  • Flexible working
  • Confidentiality
  • Rights of parents and carers
  • Health and safety
  • Equality
  • Data protection
  • Grievances
  • TUPE issues
  • Employment Tribunal claims
  • Unfair and wrongful dismissal
  • Compromise agreements
