Employment

Every manager wants to have a great team of people who will help their business grow. Yet, no matter how great the crew, employee management issues can still arise. If an employment relationship problem arises, it can lead to:

  • financial and reputational risk;
  • stress;
  • act as a distraction to you and the core business; and
  • a dispute heard by the Employment Relations Authority.

You can reduce your risk of facing employment problems with well-constructed business documents that comply with employment law. These include:

  • employment agreements that cover employment rights;
  • workplace policies, handbooks and guidelines;
  • contractor agreements; and
  • migration applications.

Having these drafted and reviewed by a lawyer experienced with New Zealand’s complex employment law frameworks will lower the chance of employment problems arising. But if an employment issue does arise, you need to resolve it quickly.

At LegalVision, our employment lawyers will help you to understand your options and provide you with practical guidance fast. We have experience in helping hundreds of businesses:

  • grow their teams with well-crafted employment documents; and
  • resolve disputes when they arise.

We also offer the certainty and peace of mind of fixed pricing. Call our employment team today on 0800 005 570 and let us help you focus on what is important to your New Zealand business.
