On this day, 2 February 2023, I met with Paul Calvin who had an issue with employment contract termination by the employer. I attend to Mr. Calvin and took a statement from him on the matter of legal concern from him as follows:
Mr. Calvin complained that his employer terminated a contract bound to run for five years at 1.1 years, hence denying him employment for 3.9 years.
The employer paid a severance package to Mr. Calvin for the termination. According to Calvin, the severance package was not enough compensation for the remainder of his contract.
The main cause of disagreement between Calvin and the employer was the interpretation of the terms of agreement between them.
The employer held the position that Calvin’s five years term contract was not fixed, Calvin maintained that it was a fixed term.
Calvin stated that he was not interested in being reinstated at the workplace.
As correspondence to this meeting, I asked Mr. Calvin to provide the office with the following documents;
Appointment letter from Harriers Pty Ltd (original)
Appointment letter from Scaffers Ltd (copy)
Termination letter from Scaffers Ltd (original)
After the meeting with Mr. Calvin, I sent him copies of the following, so as to sign them and deliver them to the office;
Disclosure Notice as required by the Legal Profession Act 2008 (WA)
A Costs Agreement
The client's statement for signing.
As a matter of legal diligence, I checked the client’s register for LPC Lawyers, and there was no conflict of interest in representing Mr. Calvin.
Signed: K. Mason
