- Provide practical legal advice and support on Canadian federal and provincial employment standards and related legislation.
- Draft, review, and negotiate a wide variety of employment‑related agreements, including offer letters, confidentiality agreements, separation and release agreements, and settlement agreements.
- Investigate and respond to pre‑litigation matters, including demand letters and administrative agency charges (e.g., EEOC, DOL, California CRD).
- Manage and partner with outside counsel on employment‑related litigation and arbitration matters, controlling costs and driving strategy.
- Develop, update, and implement employment policies, procedures, and employee handbooks to ensure legal compliance and reflect best practices.
- Create and deliver training to HR and managers on key employment law topics, such as harassment prevention, wage and hour compliance, and managing accommodations.
- Actively identify, create, and implement process improvements to enhance the efficiency of the legal department and the handling of employment‑related matters.
- Work collaboratively with other members of the legal department and assist on projects as needed, including in other legal areas such as commercial, privacy, or general corporate matters, as the role evolves.
- Perform other related duties, as assigned or requested, as knowledge of the business and legal skills evolve.
