HIRING, DISMISSAL & DEPARTING EMPLOYEES

Hiring and Dismissal represent two points in the employment relationship where obligations & liabilities are created.

 

If you are restructuring your business and looking to reduce your workforce, if you have problematic employees you are looking to terminate for any reason, including but not limited to performance and misconduct related concerns or you are concerned about protecting your business from a key departing employee, Stitz Litigation can employ a strategy to minimize liability exposure, protect your business and make the process as quick and painless as possible.

 

Every hiring and dismissal decision is unique as are the legal obligations that are created in relation to an employee. Stitz Litigation advises employers when it comes to employee hiring and dismissal related decision making.
