Description

Prepare terms of settlement to protect your organization and resolve employment relationship problems

Most employment relationship problems are resolved through a section 149 Record of Settlement agreement.

Settlement agreements are confidential and full and final of all employment relationship issues. Resolving employment relationship issues through a Record of Settlement can reduce stress for both parties.

In this webinar, find out how to prepare a Record of Settlement with confidence.

We will focus on the legal and practical points to include in settlement agreements, so you can protect your company property and reputation.
