Employment Law

On both the employee and the employer side, we handle termination of the employment contract, severance and notice pay, reinstatement, overtime and annual leave claims, and claims for pecuniary and non-pecuniary damages arising from workplace accidents.

An application to a mediator is mandatory before an employment action may be brought. We attend this stage with the client and ensure that any offer made is compared against the true value of the file. A settlement reached without first calculating the approximate value of the claim usually works against the employee.

Time limits are particularly important in this area: a one-month period runs from service of the termination notice for a reinstatement application, and that period is a forfeiture period. Legal advice should therefore be obtained in the first days after termination.
