Case study

The Problem

The client faced operational disruptions due to an undisclosed injury of a cleaner who had been on extended leave, leading to increased reliance on casual employees.

Our Solution

We offered the client a structured process to assess the employee’s ability to return to their pre-injury state. Following our guidance, the employee voluntarily resigned upon realising they couldn’t return to work, enabling the client to swiftly find a replacement and restore regular operations.

“EWS’ knowledge of industrial relations & employment law is unmatched, providing peace of mind for our greatest asset”

EWS’ knowledge of industrial relations and employment law is second to none and they apply a measured & forensic approach when providing counsel. EWS also delivered their bullying and harassment workshop to all our employees. The facilitator’s ability to break down complex legal principles into easy-to-understand language with supporting case studies was key to the success of the workshop. We asked them to do an an independent payroll and award audit, which was a valuable exercise while also ensuring financial and corporate governance compliance in the interests of our board, management, and employees. The process provided peace of mind that we were doing the right thing by employees, who are our greatest asset in club land.
