Labour & employment law for employers
Protecting your business from employment risks, keeping your workplace compliant, and representing management at the CCMA and Labour Court.
We act for employers, helping management and HR teams stay on the right side of South African labour law and defending them when disputes arise.
Our work covers everything from employment contracts and workplace policies to CCMA cases, Labour Court litigation, retrenchments, and strikes.
Good preparation prevents most labour disputes. When a case does go to the CCMA or Labour Court, we represent you with a clear strategy and business sense.
How we support employers
Employer protection & compliance
- Executive employment contracts
- Senior-level agreements with strong confidentiality clauses, non-disclosure agreements (NDAs), and restraints of trade.
- Workplace policies & disciplinary codes
- Company handbooks and HR policies that line up with the Basic Conditions of Employment Act (BCEA) and the Labour Relations Act (LRA).
- Employment equity & B-BBEE alignment
- Setting up your workplace structures to meet Employment Equity rules and avoid heavy penalties.
Disputes & representation
- CCMA & bargaining council
- Strategic defence for employers facing claims of unfair dismissal, unfair labour practice, or constructive dismissal.
- Labour Court litigation
- Representation for urgent interdicts, reviews of CCMA awards, and complex group disputes.
- Disciplinary hearings
- Independent, legally sound chairpersons for internal hearings, so the process is fair and defensible.
Restructuring & collective labour
- Section 189 retrenchments
- Guiding management through restructuring, downsizing, and lawful retrenchment consultations to avoid future claims.
- Transfer of a business (Section 197)
- Handling the move of employee contracts and liabilities during mergers, acquisitions, or the sale of a business.
- Strikes & unions
- Wage negotiations, recognition agreements, and urgent court interdicts during unprotected strikes.
Lower workforce risk. Keep operations running.
One unfair dismissal or a badly drafted employment contract can cause serious financial and operational damage at the CCMA. We work alongside management teams and HR directors as a strong legal shield. Our proactive approach keeps your workplace policies solid, handles disputes with business sense, and keeps your company protected from employment law claims.
