Core practice area
Employment Law
Clear advice for employers and employees, from the first contract to the end of the working relationship.
Employment problems are easier and cheaper to prevent than to fix. We help employers put the right contracts, handbooks and procedures in place, and we guide them through difficult decisions such as discipline, dismissal and redundancy.
We also act for employees who have been treated unfairly, and we represent clients before the Employment Tribunal when a dispute cannot be resolved by agreement.
How we help
-
Contracts and handbooks
Employment contracts, staff handbooks and workplace policies that reflect Maldivian employment law and how your business runs.
-
Discipline and grievances
Advice on investigations, hearings and warnings, so that procedures are fair and properly recorded.
-
Termination
Guidance before ending employment, to reduce the risk of a claim, and settlement agreements where appropriate.
-
Redundancy and restructuring
Planning and carrying out redundancy and outsourcing programmes, including the effect of organisational change on staff.
-
Foreign employees
The employment side of bringing in and managing expatriate staff.
-
Employment Tribunal
Representation for employers and employees in claims before the Employment Tribunal and on appeal.
