Getting employment law right can be tough
Dealing with HR and employment law can be time consuming, scary and stressful. Every day well-meaning employers are pinged with expensive personal grievances for even small mistakes. This unfortunate reality distracts employers from doing what they do best, and the worry of getting things wrong impacts their well-being.
Compounding on this issue is how expensive it is getting good advice. While lawyers can be of use they are prohibitively expensive, and legal bills rack up fast. Further, while industry associations have some resources to help, more often than not their offerings on employment law and human resource matters are thin.
Our team of deeply experienced employment consultants saw an opportunity to address this in New Zealand. We want employment law to work for small businesses again and this is why we founded Employer Direct.
