From proactive workplace advice to complex disputes, we help employers navigate employment, work health and safety, and industrial relations challenges to achieve their desired outcome.
Achieving your desired outcome is all that matters.
Employment and safety issues can be the most challenging and consequential you face. Listening to you and understanding your key objectives and desired outcome—in tandem with the very best technical expertise and relevant experience—are how we guide you to that outcome.
Across the disciplines of employment, industrial relations and work health and safety, you will have access to the people you need who will strategically, pragmatically and collaboratively work towards a shared understanding by simplifying the complex to identify the best course of action.
And while we excel at avoiding disputes—when a dispute is the best course of action, we ensure our clients prevail.
You will inevitably face challenges and hurdles at all stages of the employment life cycle. Supporting you to successfully address complex and often time-sensitive issues is the primary focus of our employment team.
Your objectives and desired outcome are central to the strategy we agree and work towards collaboratively, deploying the very best legal thinking and pragmatic, accessible advice.
How we can help:
Industrial relations are increasingly complex. Guiding you through changing laws, heightened employee expectations, union engagement and the risk of disputes is central to our industrial relations team’s approach.
You will receive advice grounded in a deep understanding of how your business operates—balancing legal risk with commercial realities—so you can make informed decisions to reach your required objectives.
From enterprise bargaining and workforce change to industrial strategies, the focus stays firmly on outcomes that matter to you.
How we can help:
You know it’s critical that you develop and maintain a strong culture of working safely in your organisation—not only to comply with your legal obligations—but to make sure that everyone who works in, or with, your organisation is protected from harm.

You need a legal team to work with you to prevent these issues as much as is possible and to expertly guide you to the best outcome when things go wrong. Our specialist safety partners and lawyers are the leaders in their field, with advice that is focused on protecting your directors, the business and those who work for you.
And while regulator intervention may be unavoidable—when investigations or enforcement action is taken against you, we ensure your best course of action is taken to minimise legal risk.
How we can help:
