If your organization is like many others — private, public, or not-for-profit alike — your employment policies have probably evolved more as a reaction to events than as a planned strategy.
The problem is that while this ad hoc approach may have served you well, every aspect of the employer/employee relationship is becoming more complex, more legislated and needs to be cognizant of rapidly changing attitudes and regulations in many areas: human rights, safety standards, bargaining and negotiating to name a few.
At the same time, employees are becoming better educated regarding their rights, benefits and responsibilities.
When you work with the broadly experienced team at Emstrata Law, we will detail the aspects of employment and labour law that are most relevant to your business, go through a comprehensive review with you of your current policies, and construct a forward looking employment strategy that takes all of these things into consideration.
The benefit is two-fold. Obviously, a planned strategic approach means that you will be in compliance with all of the legislation and regulations surrounding your industry and thus will be protected from expensive future problems.
Perhaps as importantly, on a day to day basis, this strategic approach enables you to fully concentrate on growing your business and achieving your organization’s goals with the peace of mind that comes from knowing this potentially problematic area has been addressed.
