Our custom agreements are:

• Termination Rights: Clear grounds and procedures for ending employment
• Performance Management: Framework for reviews, improvement plans, and expectations
• Work Health & Safety: Employer and employee obligations
• Dispute Resolution: Clear escalation procedures before litigation

Every clause is drafted to be enforceable under current Australian law.

Our lawyers stay current with all legislative changes and ensure every agreement meets the latest compliance requirements. We also include clear guidance on which clauses may require adjustment based on your specific modern award coverage.

Question 10

Can I make future amendments to the agreement?

Yes! Your agreement is designed as a flexible template that you can adapt for different roles and circumstances. We provide clear guidance on:

• Which sections are standard and should remain unchanged
• Which fields can be customized for each new hire (salary, role, start date, etc.)
• How to make minor adjustments while maintaining legal validity
