Employment Law

Employment relationships are fundamental to the success of any organisation, but they can also present complex legal and practical challenges. With employment law continually evolving, both employers and employees need clear guidance to understand their rights, obligations, and options.

At Stainton Chellew, we provide practical, commercially focused employment law advice tailored to the needs of our clients. Whether you are an employer seeking to manage workplace issues and minimise risk, or an employee requiring advice on your rights and entitlements, we can help you navigate employment matters with confidence.

Our experienced team advises on all aspects of employment law, including employment agreements, workplace policies, disciplinary and performance processes, restructures and redundancies, personal grievances, workplace investigations, health and safety obligations, restraints of trade, and employment disputes.

We work closely with businesses of all sizes, from small owner-operated enterprises through to established companies, helping them develop effective workplace practices and resolve issues before they escalate. We also regularly assist employees in relation to employment disputes, negotiated exits, settlement agreements, and matters before the Employment Relations Authority and Employment Court.

Our focus is on providing clear, pragmatic advice and practical solutions that support productive workplace relationships, minimise disruption, and achieve the best possible outcome for our clients.
