An employment lawyer can assist you in several key areas, including:

For employees:

→ Helping you understand and advocate for your rights

→ Pursuing claims for unpaid wages or benefits
→ Addressing violations of workplace health and safety laws

For employers:

→ Review or drafting of employment contracts, workplace policies, and more
→ Support with onboarding and off-boarding of employees to ensure they are well taken care of, while reducing liability risk for your business

This overview highlights the broad scope of support available, but we recommend consulting with a lawyer for your specific concerns in the workplace.
