Get expert, affordable legal advice
It can be difficult to understand your rights and entitlements as an employee, and if something goes wrong, it can be hard to know who you can turn to.
MDL’s experienced Employment Law team can assist you by providing advice so you can be assured that you are receiving all of your entitlements and being treated fairly in the workplace.
We can assist with any of your Employment Law needs:
Reviewing Employment Contracts
Are you starting or finishing a job, and do you need some help understanding your rights and obligations under an employment contract?
At MDL, we have a dedicated Employment Law team who can assist you by reviewing and advising you on your employment contract either before starting a new job or when ending a job.
Employee or Contractor?
Establishing whether or not you are an employee or a contractor is extremely important to ensure you are receiving all of your entitlements from your employer. Employees have entitlements such as annual leave and superannuation that contractors don’t, and if you are a contractor and it is found in the future that you’re actually an employee, you may be entitled to a back payment of these entitlements that were not originally provided.
Accordingly, at MDL, we can assist in determining whether you are an employee or a contractor and advise you on any entitlements you may be owed.
Underpayment
You may have just noticed that your employer has been underpaying you, and you’re not sure if there is anything you can do.
Legally, you can claim up to six years of back payments from your employer if you were not being paid the correct amount. At MDL, we can help by calculating the total amount you have been underpaid and assist you to recover this money.
Unfair Dismissal
Have you been terminated or made redundant and you don’t believe it was fair?
Employers are required to follow all relevant employment laws when terminating an employee or making an employee redundant. If employers don’t follow these laws, your termination may be considered unfair, and you may be able to apply to the Fair Work Commission for unfair dismissal.
At MDL, we understand how difficult it can be to lose your job and how challenging it is to get back on your feet. Accordingly, we can advise you on whether your termination was unfair and help you apply to the Fair Work Commission at an affordable cost.
