Issues for employers to consider pre- and post-employment

While employer’s put a lot of work into maintaining the employment relationship, there are a number of considerations before and post the employment relationship.
Before the employment relationship begins, employers need to consider issues such as having a trial period, probationary period or nothing.
Considerations include:
- Is there anything you want to make the employment offer conditional on?
- Post-employment, can you deduct from an employee’s final pay for any reason?
- How are you going to protect your confidential information and enforce any restraints?
Please join our Workplace Law experts who will cover these questions plus a number of others that their team answers regularly.
