Our Services
Employment and Independent Contractor Agreements
We provide services related to the negotiation, drafting, and interpretation of employment and contractor agreements. Clear agreements ensure that all parties understand the terms and conditions of the relationship, and reduce the risk of unexpected liabilities being incurred.
Workplace Policies
We assist with the drafting, review, revision, and implementation of employer policies relating to workplace health and safety, harassment, violence prevention, and operations.
Workplace Investigations
Where there is an allegation of workplace misconduct, a quick response can be critical. We provide thorough, confidential, and experienced third-party investigatory services.
Human Rights and Accommodation
We provide advice relating to rights and obligations pursuant to human rights and accommodation. We also manage complaints and provide representation during human rights proceedings.
Unionized Workplaces
For unionized workplaces, we provide a full range of services relating to certification, labour board proceedings, collective bargaining and grievance arbitration.
While the above are examples of some common situations which arise, we also provide services in a range of other areas. These include employment issues arising in relation to the purchase or sale of an existing business, workplace safety and health matters, and mediation of workplace issues.
If you have an employment related issue, we would love to speak with you about how we can help.
Performance Management, Disciplinary Action and Wrongful Dismissal
Where it is necessary to manage employee performance or impose disciplinary action, there are a number of legal considerations. We can help to guide employers through this process, with the aim of minimizing risk and improving outcomes for employers and employees.
Fees for Services
In addition to providing services on an hourly basis, Kersey Workplace Law is happy to discuss whether your situation may be appropriate for an alternative fee arrangement. These arrangements can be utilized to provide certainty with regard to legal expenses.
Packages
New businesses or employers experiencing growth may need a number of employment agreements and appropriate policies. In such cases, we would be happy to discuss a bundled option including guidance regarding what should be implemented.
Fixed fee arrangements
Standard form employment agreements, offer letters, and policies may be available through a fixed fee arrangement.
Subscription legal services
Proactive early management of employee issues can help employers avoid those issues evolving into disruptive and costly disputes. Where an employer has regular employment law needs, we also offer a subscription model which allows members of management to call with their questions without incurring fees on an hourly basis.
