Navigating the Complexities of Employment & Labor Law

1. Drafting and Vetting of Employment Contracts & NDAs

A secure workplace begins with a legally sound contract. At Askurlawyer, we draft comprehensive employment agreements, non-compete clauses, and non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) that protect your business’s intellectual property and trade secrets while staying compliant with Indian labor regulations.

2. Defense Against Wrongful Termination and Workplace Disputes

We represent both corporate entities and senior executives in high-stakes termination disputes. Our advocates provide strategic counsel in matters of breach of contract, severance negotiations, and wrongful dismissal claims, ensuring that the principles of natural justice are upheld.

3. Compliance with the New Labor Codes and Statutory Laws

India is undergoing a massive shift with the introduction of new Labor Codes. Askurlawyer helps businesses transition smoothly, ensuring full compliance with laws regarding Wages, Social Security, Industrial Relations, and Occupational Safety to prevent future litigation and penalties.

4. Prevention of Sexual Harassment (POSH) Act Compliance

Maintaining a safe and compliant workplace is a legal mandate. We assist organizations in setting up Internal Committees (IC), drafting POSH policies, and conducting workplace sensitization workshops. We also represent parties in sensitive litigation arising from POSH allegations.

5. Industrial Relations and Trade Union Negotiations

Managing large-scale workforces requires expertise in collective bargaining and industrial disputes. Our firm provides mediation and litigation support for matters involving strikes, lockouts, and negotiations with trade unions, aiming for a resolution that maintains industrial peace.

6. Employee Benefits, Provident Fund (PF), and Gratuity Claims

We provide authoritative advice on statutory benefits, including the Employees’ Provident Fund (EPF), ESI, and Gratuity. Askurlawyer ensures that employers fulfill their legal obligations and that employees receive their rightful dues through strategic representation in labor courts.

7. White-Collar Crime Investigations and Employee Misconduct

When internal fraud or misconduct occurs, immediate legal action is required. We conduct internal legal audits and represent firms in criminal and civil proceedings against employees involved in embezzlement, data theft, or other white-collar crimes.
