Abi Frederick

Abi advises employers on all aspects of employment law, from contracts of employment and staff handbooks to grievances, disciplinary proceedings, discrimination, sickness absence, TUPE and dismissals. A large proportion of her practice is project managing international advice and providing strategic input in relation to multi-jurisdictional projects and/or processes such as collective redundancies, sickness absence, engagement of contingent workers and contract reviews. Abi also regularly advises on the more unusual working arrangements such as apprentices, interns and agency workers. More recently, this has included advising a number of clients within the ‘gig economy’ or ‘platform economy’ on the best ways to engage individual workers, and the associated risks.
