Getting your ducks in a row and having the right paperwork in place can save you and your people a lot of heartache.
If your business is new, going through a period of growth or maybe you need to review or update your processes, we can help make sure you are legally compliant, delivering best practice processes all while building and supporting a positive and engaged workforce.
So, what ducks do you need to line up?
Employment agreements (or contracts) are the foundation of good working relationships. While not legally required, they are best practice and are usually the first formal communication with a new employee and can help set the tone before your employee has even put a foot in the door.
If you already have employment agreements in place, are they still valid? Maybe you’ve had some promotions, approved a change in status (e.g. casual to permanent) or perhaps you’ve restructured and roles have changed but nothing has been documented. It’s never too late to document employee and employer obligations.
We provide custom employment agreements written specifically for your business, including all of the relevant information to protect your business. Our employment agreements will help you manage any issues down the track too – we’ve got you well and truly covered!
We can develop Employee Agreements as needed either using your Buy The Time minutes, as a process we implement as your embedded HR Manager or we can determine what policies you need and then provide a set price as a standalone project.
Packages start from as little as $995 for 5 bespoke Employee Agreements.

Where needed, we interview managers and teams to understand the roles in the business.
