The responsibilities of employers and employees of Indigenous governments, communities and entities are comprehensive and complex. The individuals working in these environments deliver programs and services, engage in inter-governmental relationships and advance economic development initiatives.
The employment environment requires policies that incorporate applicable employment standards, and result in fair working conditions and a desirable place to work. We help our clients to develop policies and procedures that acknowledge and respect Indigenous culture while also complying with applicable legislation.
Our work includes:
- developing and implementing employment, conflict of interest and travel policies
- drafting, reviewing and advising on employment and contractor contracts
- advising and supporting employers through discipline and termination of employees
