All organisations are directly affected by employment law issues. The employment of staff imposes legal obligations that are fast changing, and the consequences of non-compliance can be costly.

Most companies need to operate their workplace not only in compliance with legal obligations but also in line with the organisation’s culture.

Dorade Law has extensive experience of advising commercial and not for profit organisations. We can assist employers by providing key tactical advice on day to day issues and on-going support to management, HR and trustees. We also offer advice and assistance on marine-related employment matters.

We can provide you with the following:

• Workplace contracts: a well-drafted contract forms part of the bond between an employer and a loyal workforce. Dorade Law can provide contracts tailored to meet the specific needs of the organisation, including yacht crew contracts
• Contractor agreements: organisations are increasingly relying on separate agreements with contractors to protect confidential and commercially sensitive information, as well as helping to define the services that are being provided
• Policies and benefits: practical and positive workplace policies covering topics such as disability discrimination and grievance procedures are essential to minimise organisational risks and to promote and encourage an organisation’s development
• Alternative dispute resolution and mediation for employment-related disputes.
