— EMPLOYMENT LAW GUIDANCE
Protect your business. Stay on the right side of employment law.
HR guidance grounded in Canadian employment standards — policies, documentation, terminations, and compliance support that protects your business when employee situations get complicated.
WHAT WE DO
The work most owners only think about after a problem.
Most small businesses don't think about employment law until something goes wrong — a difficult termination, a complaint, a sudden departure. By the time you need the right policies and documentation, it's usually too late to put them in place.
We bring the structure and discipline of proper HR compliance to your business — policies, documentation systems, performance management, and termination guidance — so you have the protection you need before you need it. Note: this is HR guidance, not legal advice; for matters requiring legal counsel, we coordinate with employment lawyers.
WHAT WE DELIVER
Compliance-first HR. Structured to protect your business.
HR documentation, policies, and process guidance designed to align with Canadian employment standards — reducing risk and helping you handle difficult situations the right way.
Comprehensive policy documents covering code of conduct, leave, health and safety, harassment, and more — aligned with Canadian employment standards.
Structured PIPs that document expectations, provide clear development paths, and create proper records — supporting fair process for everyone involved.
Carefully drafted settlement agreements, severance terms, and separation paperwork — protecting both the employer and employee through the transition.
Systems for organizing, storing, and updating employee records — keeping information secure, accessible, and compliant with privacy requirements.
Step-by-step guidance on handling terminations — documentation, notice periods, final payments, ROEs, and the right way to manage the conversation itself.
Guidance on investigating complaints — harassment, discrimination, misconduct — with proper process, documentation, and escalation when legal counsel is needed.
Reviewing and updating contracts, offer letters, and amendments — ensuring they align with current employment standards and protect your business.
Frameworks for handling vacation, sick leave, parental leave, accommodations, and statutory leaves — keeping you compliant with provincial requirements.
Reviewing your current HR practices, documentation, and policies against Canadian employment standards — identifying gaps before they become problems.
WHY IT MATTERS
The cost of getting it wrong is much higher than getting it right.
Employment disputes, wrongful dismissal claims, and labour standards penalties can cost tens of thousands of dollars — money that proper documentation could have saved.
A single wrongful dismissal claim can run into tens of thousands in severance, legal fees, and settlements — often preventable with proper documentation in place.
Clear policies, documented performance issues, and properly handled terminations dramatically reduce your exposure to complaints and disputes.
When you have to terminate, investigate, or address misconduct, you have the documentation, process, and guidance to do it correctly.
For matters that require a lawyer, we coordinate with employment counsel — so you get HR guidance and legal advice working in the same direction.
HOW IT WORKS
From compliance audit to ongoing protection.
Every engagement starts by reviewing where your HR documentation and practices currently stand — then builds the structure that protects you going forward.
We review your current policies, contracts, documentation, and processes against Canadian employment standards — identifying gaps and priority risks.
We develop or update employer policies, contracts, handbooks, and documentation systems — building the foundation of compliant HR practice.
We help implement the practices — performance management, leave processes, termination procedures — that turn policies into actual practice.
As situations arise, we provide guidance, documentation support, and coordination with legal counsel when legal advice is required.
WHY TWENTY32
HR guidance that knows when to call the lawyer.
We're HR professionals, not employment lawyers. We provide the policies, documentation, and process guidance that prevents most problems — and we coordinate with legal counsel when matters require legal advice.
Federal, provincial, and territorial employment standards — documentation, contracts, and practices built around the actual rules that apply to your business.
Our team has handled real terminations, complaints, and compliance issues in growing businesses — we know what good documentation looks like in practice.
We're not a substitute for legal counsel. When matters require a lawyer, we coordinate with employment law specialists to keep guidance and advice aligned.
Compliance work connects directly to recruitment, journey, and strategic HR — so policies and documentation reflect your actual practices end-to-end.
