employment and labor law
Justice Corner provides comprehensive legal services in employment and labor law matters in Bangladesh, assisting both employees and employers. Our law firm provides guidance on contracts, termination disputes, compliance with labor laws, and relations between staff and management. We understand that every business has unique challenges which require tailored litigation or advisory support; thus we devote ourselves to learning more about each client’s needs supporting their legal rights through complex employment issues.
Clients seek our advice on unfair dismissals, wrongful termination claims, workplace discrimination cases, and denial of equal pay for equal work. Other legal matters we deal with include bonus schemes offered to employees, welfare funds set up for them, and breaches of minimum mandatory employment conditions. More so, we assist in resolving trade union disputes including strikes and collective bargaining while formulating appropriate policies for the industrial relations aspects. Clients benefit from our advice knowing it is grounded on the Bangladesh Labour Act of 2006 and its subsequent statutory regulations.
Our clients in corporate practice regularly seek assistance drafting and reviewing various documents as well as providing legal opinions because they attest to quality work done by our fellow colleagues specialized in these areas. We guide employers in formulating legally sound employment contracts, non-disclosure agreements (NDAs), non-compete clauses, and executive compensation agreements. We also cross-check business HR policies and employee handbooks to ensure compliance with relevant laws as well as mitigate potential future conflicts.
Litigation-wise, our attorneys represent clients regularly at the Labour Court, the Labour Appellate Tribunal and the High Court Division of the Supreme Court of Bangladesh. We offer representation for both sides of an employment dispute that demands court action. The Justice Corner has been successful in employment-related writ petitions, especially those involving trade union and compliance issues.
We have represented large national and international corporations including banks. We advised The City Bank Limited regarding writ petitions filed about labor and trade union issues with the High Court. Also, we represented Saad Musa Group in several matters before the Labour Appellate Tribunal. Furthermore, we have provided Grameenphone Limited with comprehensive legal opinions on several disparate employment law matters like funds for workers’ participation and corporate obligations respecting benefits to employees under prevailing legislation.
