Identify – we can then identify your impact through understanding your organisation;
3
Advise – our written advice which includes a recommended Sustainability Framework to fit your organisation;
4
Implement – we draft relevant charters, policies and procedures and meet with board members, executives, management and stakeholders to implement a Sustainability Framework; and
5
Assess – finally, we create a due diligence process in which we can enable you to monitor the effectiveness of the Sustainability Framework.

Pragma Lawyers provided us with clear and concise advice on a number of complex industrial relations and employment matters. Their guidance was not only solid and timely but also gave us confidence at every stage that we were in good hands.
