Employment
Welcome to the Royds Employment Department
Employers need constantly to keep up to date with new developments in employment legislation to ensure good employment relations and avoid expensive and disruptive claims. We can advise and guide you as change happens in your business resulting from strategic management decisions, external influences or legislative requirements.
Our experienced and pro-active Employment Team adopts an approach which is geared to be “a step ahead”. We look beyond your immediate concerns, anticipating and preparing you for the next stage in any process, guiding you through the legislation and providing practical commercial advice and solutions to your employment issues.
We will advise you on procedures, the use of new employment policies and best practice to give you a competitive advantage, whether this is in recruiting or retaining your staff at every level; employee rights and equal opportunities, discrimination, redundancy, TUPE, data protection or confidentiality and protection against unfair competition. Across the practice our lawyers can also provide specialist advice on pensions and tax.
Our experience of each side of the employment relationship broadens our understanding from both perspectives and puts us in a stronger position when negotiating for clients.
We can help you take control, so that you can get the best from your human resources.
