Labour disputes are an inevitable part of business but managing them is a critical element of business. We understand that every employment dispute has a human dimension as well as a legal one, which is why our employment litigation team applies an approach that is characterised by tactfulness and emotional intelligence.

Prevence Law Firm provides legal services at all stages of labour disputes, from preventive advice to representation before the Labour Disputes Commission or the courts. We represent in disputes related to termination of employment, material damage caused by employees, unpaid overtime, severance payments or bonuses.

To ensure that your team is well-informed on current employment law issues, we develop tailor-made courses on employment law, tailored to your company’s specific needs.

We can assist you with the following matters:

Representation in a labour disputes committee

When dealing with businesses, we often encounter cases where the deadline for referral to the Labour Disputes Commission is missed.

We therefore point out that it is only when a breach of employment law has been identified that it is worth seeking advice from labour law specialists. They will analyse the situation of the labour dispute, develop a solid strategy for resolving the dispute and prepare the evidence for representation before the Labour Disputes Commission.

When representing clients, we provide them with insights into how to resolve gaps in employment law within the company.

Disputes over material damage caused by employees

Disputes relating to material damage caused by an employee are among the most sensitive in employment law.

In the analysis of a dispute, it is essential to distinguish whether the employee’s actions were intentional or negligent. Our labour law team will help you assess whether the company has properly informed the employee of his/her duties and responsibilities, and whether all the conditions were in place for the employee to perform his/her work safely and competently.

Non-competition agreements

Non-competition agreements are an essential tool for companies to protect their business interests and customer base from competition from former employees.

It is important that non-compete agreements are proportionate and that their terms are legally justified. This means that the agreement should not be too rigid or long term (it can only last for 2 years), so as not to infringe the employee’s rights to work and competition.

Such agreements should be grounded in genuine business needs and must evaluate both the compensation amount and the payment method.

We will assist indrafting legally robust non-compete agreements that meet both business and legal requirements.
