How this service works

MOHRE's employment rules set clear boundaries around contracts, disciplinary process, and termination, and a structure that ignores them can turn a straightforward staffing decision into a labour complaint. Getting the paperwork right at the start of employment is far cheaper than defending a dispute later.

We structure employment contracts and disciplinary procedures to match current MOHRE requirements, advise on termination decisions before they are made, and represent employers in settlement discussions when a complaint is filed.

Employers drafting their first standard employment contract, companies restructuring their workforce, and businesses facing an active labour complaint all use this service.

How the file moves

  • We confirm the objective, list the documents required and quote government and service fees in writing.
  • Your consultant prepares, types and submits the file, then follows it through each approval stage.
  • You receive the outcome document, a copy for your records and a reminder before any renewal falls due.

Frequently asked questions

What should a disciplinary process include to stay compliant?

A documented warning process, a clear record of the underlying issue, and consistency with the employee's contract terms are the essentials. We review your specific process before a dispute arises.

Can you represent us if a labour complaint has already been filed?

Yes. We advise on settlement structures and represent employers directly in negotiations, aiming to resolve the matter without a prolonged process wherever the facts allow it.
