Employment Topics for an Employee

Employment topics for an employee – Kent, Sussex and Surrey

The nature of an employment relationship means that, over time, periodical issues can arise between the parties.

Our team is on hand to support you through these times, with their experience, advising on all aspects of employment law, including the following examples:

Flexible working

Often an important topic for both parties, our team can support you with an application for flexible working, ensuring that you understand the practical requirements to maximise the chances of success and what to do if this is rejected by your employer.

Family rights

Maternity, paternity, shared parental and adoption leave, and pay for example, are all topics that our team have experience advising on. These rights can come with additional protections, for example, from being made redundant. We can assist with queries in relation to your right to particular types of leave and how to approach these topics with your employer.

Please do get in touch to discuss the particulars of your situation and our team will be ready to assist.
