Our Practice Areas
Employment Law
Carters can assist with negotiating and drafting employment contracts, preparing workplace policies and procedures, and informing employers of their statutory and common law duties with respect to their employees. There may also be issues with respect to the legal obligations of employers under human rights laws, and our lawyers are able to educate and advise employers about their duties in that regard, and can assist in negotiating a result that achieves our clients’ goals.
Carters can also assist with a variety of maters related to the Employment Standards Act, 2000, and Ontario Human Rights Code, including:
