Our employment practice is currently retained by a number of multi-national organisations, local corporate entities and international non-governmental organisations and has guided clients through the difficult transition from the employment-at-will to the termination-for-just-reasons dispensation imposed by the Employment Act 2006.
Our team has navigated clients through the minefields of onerous statutory disciplinary processes and mass lay-offs (collective terminations) and have presided over the termination of up to 1500 employees in total without any residual litigation. The practice also continues to take a proactive role in empowering clients to deal with the new dispensation of the law ushered in by the labour laws of 2006 by facilitating workshops and issuing routine legal papers and compliance checklists.
