Settlement Agreements

As an employer, you may find yourself in a position where you are considering ‘paying off’ an employee.

This may be as a result of redundancies either to reduce costs or to achieve an organisational structure that meets your business needs.

Alternatively, you may be thinking of making an ex-gratia payment to an employee to resolve an employment issue without the risk of litigation.

Whatever the reason, it is wise to seek expert legal guidance first.

At Mander Hadley, our friendly and knowledgeable team of employment law experts can provide advice and practical assistance with Settlement Agreements, previously known as Compromise Agreements.

It is important that Settlement Agreement documents are drafted carefully to ensure they provide full protection and are tailored to address the specific situation the payment is intended to cover. Failing to follow the correct procedures could result in you facing an expensive unfair dismissal claim.
