Thousands of employers turn to us for advice on employment contracts
Thousands of employers contact us each day about employment contracts and, more broadly, employment documentation in general. It’s a good thing they do too, as, for instance, employers must issue new starters with a written statement that includes the 5 core terms of employment within their first five days.
It’s this kind of information that helps employers focus on running their business with confidence. And since we follow Workplace Relations Commission Codes (WRC) of Practice, you can be confident you’re acting within Irish employment law.

This is a fantastic service. The advisor I spoke to was extremely helpful and listened carefully to everything I wished to discuss - offering guidance and addressing my concerns. He also called to follow up with me twice to ensure I did not require any additional help. Could not be happier with the service I was given.


We were very pleased with the prompt support over the phone and a representative was booked to come to our office the next day. Excellent and efficient service.


Very easy to make contact, explained in plain English and followed up to see if any more help was needed. Great job thank you
