Testimonials
Law At Work International (Founded by Malcolm Mackay)
Channel Islands
“Law At Work has proved to be an invaluable service providing advice and guidance in a rapidly changing employment environment. The advice service is cost effective and the workshops informative. No busy HR Team should be without this type of support.”
Teresa Lamy, HR Director Equity Trust (Jersey) Ltd
“Due to the nature of our business, we have a reasonably high turnover of staff as we are in the building trade. Since the employment laws came into force in 2005, we have found employees use the law to their advantage and so we signed up to Law At Work in January 2007. They have provided our business with many excellent services associated with the new arrangements. Without their support, I don't think we would have had enough knowledge of the new laws to have created our company handbooks and staff contracts. The Law At Work advisory service has provided us with a level of support which exceeded our expectations and has also already saved our Company unnecessary expense. The training seminars have highlighted the proper procedures for running a disciplinary hearing which is a must nowadays.”
Maria Bailey. Office Manager Houze Construction
“We undertook the services of Law At Work in summer 2005 and we are delighted with the level of customer service that we are receiving. We have a nominated point of contact that fully understands our business, almost making us feel like we have an in-house lawyer, at the end of the phone. We are given sensible, professional advice on anything from a full audit of HR documentation (which is a project in itself!) to day-to-day issues, while still understanding the practical needs of the business. In their absence, another member of the team is always available and fully able to advise 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We believe the services that Law At Work offer are a very wise choice in the changing times of employment legislation, providing invaluable support for any company who wants to take compliance seriously.”
Maya Derodra, HR Manager Longueville Manor Hotel
“Signing up for the sevices of Law at Work was one of the best moves I made during the first two years of developing my own business. I have received expert advice from the legal team as a matter of course and have attended some excellent workshops which they have presented. When I have needed urgent assistance, the team at Law at Work could not have been more readily accessible or helpful. I would highly recommend their organisation to any small business – especially where there is a potentially high turnover of staff.”
Jacky Holtham-Dix, Managing Director Angels Care
“When the news came that the Island would have to comply to a whole new Employment Law, we being two sister companies, Bellpumps & Pollution Control Ltd and Bell Service Company Ltd, were in a dilemma as to how we were going to cope with all the extra paperwork, worry, know how etc to deal with it all. We were relieved when we had the offer of the services of Law at Work who would advise and help us organise our practises to comply with the new laws. They have made the transition smooth and worry free. They do all the hard work and we benefit from their excellent service and advice.”
Kevin Jubb, Office Manager Bellpumps & Pollution Control Ltd & Bell Service Company Ltd
“Since the changes (in 2005) to our Island’s Employment Laws, our employees, probably more than most, could have been troublesome - seeking to use these new laws to their own benefit. Due to the nature of our industry, we have a reasonably high turnover of staff. We confirm that we have dealt with Law at Work since 2005, during which time they have provided our business with many excellent services associated with the new arrangements. So far they have provided us with a level of support which exceeded expectations that has also already saved our Company unnecessary expense.”
John Trant, Operational Director Jayen Ltd
“Since working with the team at Law At Work we have been highly impressed with the levels of service provided and the product we have been using. As a Company with a high turnover of seasonal staff, Law At Work has proven invaluable in assisting us with advice and contracting. Having a dedicated point of contact is both re-assuring and practical and we always come off the phone from Law At Work with the answers and advice we need.”
Stephen Clipp, Queens Hotel
“In a constantly changing world of employment regulation and case law, Law At Work provide a cost effective service which keeps us up to date with the changes and allows us to talk through HR issues before they become HR problems. Their Helpline allows us to sound out our own thought process and clarify the law when required, without the requirement of employing a full time HR professional.”
Stephen Le Quesne, Finance Director, 2e2 Companies in the Channel Islands
“We signed up to Law at Work 18 months ago and we are very happy with this decision. The dedicated Managers are all extremely knowledgeable and provide a professional service, with a personal touch. We are asked for regular feedback and what we say is clearly listened to.”
Alison Le Vesconte, Personnel Manager, Voisins Department Store
“No matter how efficient you think your HR function is, Law at Work have an up to date handle on emerging employment law issues. The personal service is consistently first class and hugely cost effective in the long run.”
Mario Pirozzolo TD, Managing Director Empire Catering Limited
Malta
“With a workforce totalling almost 500 people and the constant changes to Employment Law on a European level, at Saint James Hospital Malta we felt the need for a back-up support when dealing with the technicalities of the Employment & Industrial Relations Act. Law at Work Malta was contracted to provide our Human Resources Department with this service and we can say that over the past three years, Law at Work Malta was instrumental to help us and train us in areas where we felt needed their professional guidance.”
Frederick Attard, Human Resources & Communications Saint James Hospital Malta
“Being part of setting up Law at Work Malta has been an exciting challenge, which has given me the ability to confidently offer a great service to our clients. It has been a very rewarding experience to work with a team of individuals whose main objectives are to always offer peace of mind and around the clock, efficient, professional and practical advice."
Margarida Camilleri Reis
Administration Manager
Law At Work (Malta) Ltd
Spain
“I have always been aware of the crossover between employment law and HR. The Law At Work model allows us to exploit that to the benefit of employers. It is a logical but powerful next step for an ambitious employment law practice and the perfect risk management solution for a certain profile of clients. I have been working with the Law At Work team to launch the new service in Spain. It has been a smooth and efficient process”.
