Family businesses experience unique employment issues.

• Should family members employed in the business be treated the same as non family employees?
• Should family members be guaranteed a job in the family business regardless of merit?
• Should family members be excluded from employment in the family business altogether?

It is vital for the success of a family business that parties know where they stand and that the employment relationship is clearly defined. Sensitively drafted contracts and policies need to be backed up by day-to-day practical advice and support. Veale Wasbrough Vizards works closely with family businesses to understand their individual needs and to help avoid conflict or misunderstandings.

Our family business employment specialists can guide you through these and other issues and advise you on how your employment policies are affected by employment legislation.
