Employers - Compromise Agreement
A compromise agreement is a legally binding agreement between an employer and employee. The compromise agreement, once signed, prevents an employee from raising a claim against the employer.
There are a number of different circumstances when a compromise agreement can be used, including where an employee is threatening to raise or has raised an Employment Tribunal claim against the employer. Compromise agreements are also frequently used where an employer is paying an employee an enhanced redundancy payment.
At Morton Fraser we have a highly experienced team available to offer advice on negotiating and drafting compromise agreements to ensure that they best protect your organisation.
For a more detailed look at compromise agreements please see our Compromise Agreement Factsheet and our Compromise Agreement - Frequently Asked Questions.
