WBW provides businesses with advice and assistance on all aspects of employment legislation.

The rights of employees and workers derive from a variety of statutory sources which can frequently change.  Employers must be familiar with their obligations and keep up to date with such changes to ensure that they do not breach employee rights.   

Employment rights granted to employees are wide ranging and include:

• Working time including right to time off and breaks, paid annual leave, rules re night working;
• Pay including the minimum wage and protection from unauthorised deductions from wages;
• Family friendly rights including maternity, paternity, adoption, flexible working and time off; and
• Right to remain in employment in the event the business or service offering is sold;
• Right to be given notice on termination of employment;
• Entitlement to a written statement of terms and conditions of employment;
• Equal opportunities and treatment.

We can help you keep up to date with the changes and advise you when you face a potential dispute with an employee.
