Employment & labour law

We advise employers and employees on employment contracts, workplace discipline, unfair dismissal, redundancy and labour relations, aiming to resolve disputes before they reach the Labour Office or Industrial Court.

What we do

  • Employment contracts and policies
  • Unfair dismissal and termination
  • Redundancy and retrenchment
  • Labour relations and collective bargaining

Contracts and policies

We draft employment contracts, staff handbooks and workplace policies that comply with Uganda’s Employment Act and labour regulations.

Disputes and termination

We advise on disciplinary procedures, unfair dismissal claims, redundancy payments and settlement agreements.

Labour relations

We assist with collective bargaining, union recognition and labour disputes, including representation before the Industrial Court.

Questions clients ask

What is unfair dismissal?

Dismissal without a valid reason or without following a fair procedure. Employees can challenge it before a labour officer or the Industrial Court.

Do I need a written employment contract?

Yes. Uganda’s Employment Act requires written contracts for employment of six months or more, and we recommend them for every engagement.
