Employment and Commercial Leasing During COVID-19

Employment and Commercial Leasing During COVID-19

Walshs Partner, Hugh Walsh, recently spoke with two experts from law firm Hillhouse Legal Partners – Managing Director Zac Herps and Director Robert Lamb – to answer some of the questions many of our clients have during the challenging times we are facing during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Both Zac and Robert have a strong history advising businesses across all sectors and have been working around the clock to keep business owners up-to-date on key issues relating to employment and commercial leasing.

The enlightening video covers a wide range of topics including:

  • The obligations of businesses to their landlords when they can foresee problems with paying their rent on commercial premises.
  • The options business owners or managers have if an employee is sick with COVID-19, has been directed by the government to self-quarantine or has children doing school lessons at home.
  • What businesses can do if they cannot keep staff gainfully employed due to the impact of COVID-19.

You to watch the video HERE.

Should you have any questions or wish to discuss your own personal circumstances please call the team at Walshs at any time on 07 3221 5677.
