Policies and Procedures
Formal workplace policies and procedures are an imperative element of a safe and legally compliant business. They can be used to establish how the employment relationship will be administered, the standards of conduct and performance expected of those working within the business and how any failure to meet the standards of conduct and performance will be handled by the business.
They are also an effective tool to shield your business from liability in a range of claims, including unfair dismissal, general protections, work health and safety, sexual harassment and discrimination.
At MV Law, our experienced team can assist you with developing policies and procedures appropriate to your specific business. Whether you want us to review your current policies and procedures to ensure they comply with ever-changing workplace laws or are seeking a
new suite of policies for a new or established business, we can tailor a package to suit your needs and budget. We can also ensure that your policies are appropriately referred to in your employment contracts, without impacting on the flexibility of your policies as your business evolves.
Whatever your preferred approach, we will ensure that your policy framework is cohesive and appropriate for your business.
