Successful people do what unsuccessful people are not willing to do. Don't wish it were easier; wish you were better."

-- Jim Rohn

It's true that the difference between a successful person and an unsuccessful or less successful person usually seems small. It may just be a small decision at the time, or an extra effort towards something.

These seemingly small strides, which may be unpopular, have a way of aligning one's course towards the path of success.

What's that extra step or decision you need to take today? We encourage you to take it. Put that extra effort towards your work and your buisness. Overtime, it definitely will make a world of difference.

The entire business Legal team wishes you the best week ahead.

Employment Contract

As a business owner, do you have employment contracts for some or all of your employees? And as an employee did you sign an employment contract upon employment? Do you even consider them important or a mere formally?

In our experience, Contract are very important for all kinds of employment. The contents and structure of the contract can be altered based on the employment but it is necessary to have a formal agreement clearly laying out the terms of the engagement. Some common terms include the responsibilities of both parties, duration, termination clauses, benefits, confidentiality obligation etc.

Many times, you find that some specifics for the job are lost in time and the contracts become a good reference to the initial engagement. It is also important to ensure that the employee keeps working solely with in the scope of work stated therein.

There are hardly any downsides to having an employment contract because you protect yourself through contracts.

One of our pristine services for you is contract drafting and review. Upon engagement, we help examine all the existing contracts of your business, if any, and where none exist, prepare agreements perfectly mirroring the various engagements. We also review your contracts to ensure that you accede to terms that will not adversely affect you and your business.

Employee Compensation

Yesterday, we talked about Compensation for an employee’s mental stress. There are a lot more compensations accruable to an employee under the Act in the course of his employment.

Did you know that employees are also entitled to compensation for injuries gotten even outside the work environment?

Yes, by Section 11 of the Employee Compensation Act, where the injury to an employee occurs while the employee is working outside the normal workplace, which would otherwise entitle the employee to compensation under this Act if the injury occurred in the workplace, compensation shall be paid to the employee.

There are some conditions for the compensation:

(a) if the nature of the business of the employer extends beyond the usual workplace;

(b) if the nature of the employment is such that the employee is required to work both in and out of the workplace; or

(c) The employee has the authority or permission of the employer to work outside normal work place.

The point being that there must be a nexus between the activities outside the work environment and the employment.

I hope this proves helpful to you.

Compensation for Mental Stress

We started talking about employment relationships on Monday and we decided to continue today.

Did you know that under the Employee Compensation Act, an employee is to be entitled to compensation for mental stress? Yes, it’s true!

By Section 8 of the Act, there should be compensation when there is mental stress because of an acute reaction to a sudden and unexpected traumatic event in the course of the employee's employment or because of the nature of work.

There should also be compensation where there is mental stress as a result of the decision of the employer to change the work of the employee or the working conditions of the organization in such a way as to unfairly exceed the work ability and capacity of the employee.

The Act creates a Board to ascertain whether there is a compensation liability and to determine the amount of compensation payable.

Let’s talk about work environment today.

As a business owner, have you ever thought about the kind of business environment you create and how it impacts your staff and your operations. Are your workers respected; Are their efforts, however small, towards the growth of your business recognized and appreciated? Do you create a sense of loyalty in them by first being loyal to them?

Many times, once remuneration is paid, there is the tendency to thoughtlessly make demands. This week think about the kind of work environment and relationships you create. Endeavor to put a human face to your business interactions and ensure that your workers are adequately remunerated for work done.

It was Ranbir Kapoor that said “I believe that working with good people matters because then the work environment is good. If there is a sense of respect and belief among the people you work with, that is when good work is done.”

The Business Legal team values you and wishes you the most productive week ahead.

Did you know?

To register a professional service business or company, your application needs to be supported by your professional qualification to operate that business.

For example, for engineering companies or law firms, the Commission requires, as a procedure, for the COREN certificate or Call to bar certificate to be uploaded. This also applies to Accounting and Audit firms and Pharmacies, among others.

It is necessary to get your objects right at the stage of incorporation with the required qualification to prevent constraints later. Eg. When applying for SCUML license.

However, where the objects have been improperly stated, there is also the room for ammendment by a post incorporation application. The Commission allows you to remove and alter your objects of association after incorporation.

Let us register your company today.

Did you know that a company can change its status by re-registration?

Yes, the Section 55 of the Company and Allied Matters Act allows companies change from:

(a) a private company to a public company;

(b) a public company to a private company;

(c) a private limited company to an unlimited company;

(d) an unlimited company to a limited company; or

(e) a public limited company to an unlimited company.

You do not have to do a new registration with the Corporate Affairs Commission but can convert the existing company as you please. This is also applicable for business names which can be changed to companies.

For conversion and re-registration of your existing business name and companies, send us a direct message or visit our website at www.businesslegal.ng
