Employment counsel that protects the employer and the workplace.
Employment Advisory
Terminations and workplace disputes are decided by documentation.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Direct answers to the questions clients ask when engaging counsel in Islamabad.
What documents does an employer need in Pakistan?
Structured employers maintain employment contracts, a workplace handbook covering leave, discipline, and conduct, and records of warnings and performance reviews. These documents carry the weight of evidence if a claim is brought.
Can an employer terminate an employee in Islamabad without cause?
Termination must follow the contract and applicable labour law, and the notice and documentation requirements are strict. A termination is defensible where it is lawful, properly documented, and follows procedure. We advise employers on compliant terminations before they are made.
What are the main labour law obligations for companies in Islamabad?
Obligations typically include employment contracts, registration with relevant authorities, EOBI and social security contributions where applicable, minimum wage compliance, and compliance with workplace health and safety requirements under the ICT labour framework.
