Employment and industrial law continue to be amongst RSA's leading practice divisions.

In the field of Employment Law, he was amongst those who pioneered wage reform through a period where MEF initiatives for Performance Related Pay was gaining attention since the 1990s. He had in this time restructured dated collective agreements and phase out rigid practices, paving the way for new and robust variable reward schemes in a number of notable cases. He took on industrial conflict involving Trade Unions, their scope and recognition and fiduciary infractions at the highest levels.
