Employment Agreements
Since the introduction of the Employment Relations Act 2000, employers have lost the right to have non-documented employment relationships with their employees.
Yet we are still meeting clients who do not have even the most fundamental individual employment agreement in writing. This can be a costly gamble as the act allows for a penalty against any breach of this rule.
Having a simple, concise, well worded document which fairly and clearly conveys its intention in unmistakeable terms to both parties can prevent the misunderstanding, anguish and disputes which commonly occur in the absence of such a document.
