Labour Relations and Employment Law
We have expertise in helping employers manage human resource issues in unionized and non-unionized workplaces. Our lawyers take a proactive approach and provide training to employers to prevent disputes from arising. However, when a dispute cannot be resolved through negotiation, we represent clients at grievance arbitration and appear before administrative boards and tribunals and all levels of Court.
