Contracting and Negotiation Services in Nigeria

 

Contract negotiation is the process of achieving an agreement on a set of legally binding terms. When two companies negotiate, they both seek to secure the best deal and minimize their financial, legal, and operational risks. DelonApps is the leading provider of contracting and negotiation services in Nigeria.  Our services include out-of-court settlements, partnership negotiation, business negotiation, staff rationalization, severance negotiation, human resource management, and contract negotiation. Our clients include both local and international enterprises in oil and gas, information technology, outsourcing, and other sectors in Nigeria.

 

We have experience helping multiple multinational companies successfully negotiate severance packages with staff and out-of-court settlements that had lasted seven to ten years. DelonApps is currently providing services to big banks, international oil companies, and financial technology companies in Nigeria. Our services are outstanding because of our the following values:

 

  • Integrity – clients trust that we’re always honest and factual
  • Objectivity and fairness – while negotiating with multiple parties, we carefully listen and propose solutions from the fairest points of view
  • Competence – our team is made up of highly experienced negotiators and lawyers with local and international experience

 

When negotiating contracts with vendors, for example, your organization may insist on being able to pay on a monthly rather than annual basis (or vice versa). There isn’t necessarily a “right” option in payments, as there is in many other situations, but there is an alternative that makes the most sense for your organization. In business, we negotiate contracts to ensure that our agreements position our businesses for long-term success. With a wide array of client example scenarios, DelonApps recently assisted a company in disengaging redundant employees, and we assisted in negotiating employment termination and benefits, as well as disbursement of payment to employees and administration of capital gain tax with deductions and remittance within two months. Also, a foreign corporation also had a ten-year legal battle with a Nigerian vendor. Within a month, we assisted in the negotiation of an out-of-court settlement deal.

 

Contract negotiation is a crucial part of contract administration. Delays in contract development or execution, for example, can slow a business down, but they are unlikely to have a significant influence on its bottom line. A badly handled negotiation, on the other hand, can leave a corporation with long-term legal responsibilities.

 

In typical negotiations, such as those over a software license, topics such as governing law, customer data processing, information security, and price are discussed. The back-and-forth can take place in real-time (during a phone call or in-person meeting), but email is more prevalent, and the dynamics are the same in both cases. Both sides make compromises, inserting, removing, or modifying contract sections – the contract’s building blocks — until the two sides reach an agreement.

 

Knowledge management and process management are the keys to contract negotiation: if you don’t know the history and status of each of your contract negotiations, you can’t be sure you’re getting the best deal for your company.

 

Legal teams usually spend the majority of their time putting together contract changes from various business teams and tracking down the most recent versions of contracts due to the lack of a centralized mechanism for contract tracking and negotiation. Organizations with quarterly sales cycles face a far more difficult situation.

As a result, contract negotiation is a difficult task for legal teams and contract technologies due to the importance of the business, operational complexity, and an unequal number of contracts.

 

Our contracting and negotiating professionals in Nigeria work quickly to ensure that all parties engaged in your contract talks are satisfied. Because we strive to provide our clients with the greatest possible results, it’s never a win for us unless it’s a win-win for you.

Regular Problems faced in Contract Negotiations

Contract negotiation should be positively beneficial to both parties in every area to achieve an equitable and fair deal. As a well-negotiated contract lays down a solid foundation for a long-term relationship between both parties.

 

1. When it comes to large-scale projects and government transactions, developing countries encounter several complexities and obstacles. A well-negotiated contract is essential not only for the parties to properly fulfill their current duties but also for the future. By identifying the basic elements, the contract should be carefully specified and regulated. This is the primary reason for the necessity for fine-tuned negotiation in growing markets in developing countries.

 

2. Conflicts that arise out of contract lead to expensive arbitration or lawsuits, the costs involved in arbitration and litigation are huge. The arbitral awards could amount to huge losses which could totally disrupt the project and the business‘s financial stability and reputation. This is one of the main reasons for the failure of many start-up companies.

 

3. In most cases one of the parties has more bargaining power than the other. The weaker party struggles to reach an equal footing during negotiation. Which ultimately creates friction in the weaker party’s mind even before the start of the contract.

 

4. While negotiating the contract, interested parties must take into consideration the recurring rapid changes occurring in the outside world. which are also vital factors as these crucial details could change the scope of negotiations and therefore must not be missed.

 

UK Care Jobs: How Nigerians can apply for a visa to work as a health care worker in the United Kingdom

There is no doubt about the high cost of living in the UK but with the very low unemployment rate, it is a country to work in. There is strict equality in the workplace irrespective of gender or race and the paycheck is great as well. The working condition is also very conducive and accommodating.

Though Delon Jobs is primarily focused on helping Nigerians find jobs in Nigeria, we also help Nigerians find remote software developer jobs in Nigeria with clients in the United States and Europe. In that light, we believe that publishing an informational article like this would benefit Nigerians looking for care jobs in the United Kingdom and help Nigerians relocate to Europe. This article contains useful information for Nigerians looking for work in Nigeria.

There are lots of work leaves like bank holidays, parental leaves, time offs, etc provided to an employee in the UK. Another important thing to note is the exceptionally functional system that is in place in the UK. People’s movement from one location to another has shaped today’s political, social, and economic worlds and continues to have a significant impact on society. In 2000, nearly 175 million people, or 2.9 percent of the world’s population, spent more than a year living outside their country of birth. Around 65 million of these people are economically active. Nonetheless, the increase in migration is significant for many resource-poor countries because they are losing their better-educated nationals to richer countries: approximately 65 percent of all economically active migrants who have moved to developed countries are classified as “highly skilled”. This classification attempts to define both the educational level and the job level. In the health-care workforce, highly skilled professionals are assumed to have completed tertiary education and to have a professional job, this refers to physicians, nurses, dentists and pharmacists. The migration of health-care workers has closely tracked general trends in international migration. Migration of health workers is not new: nurses and physicians have sought employment abroad for a variety of reasons, including high unemployment in their home country’s health-care labor market.

The UK and Nigeria have deep and far-reaching ties that are rooted in both our shared history and our future partnership. Today, up to 250,000 Nigerians live legally in the UK, contributing significantly to the rich fabric of our society. Every year, approximately 130,000 Nigerians travel to the United Kingdom for both business and pleasure. Now, one would ask why a migrant would want to leave his/her country but with the current regressing economy of Nigeria most of the citizens have decided to move themselves and family to a country hoping for a better life, the economy of Nigeria is one of its greatest downfalls. Unemployment is widespread across Nigeria One factor is the critically poor state of the economy. The economy has not been in good shape for the past five years and first went into a recession in 2016, There’s been a lot of uncertainty, largely due to policy inconsistencies, about where people should invest. This cuts across various economic sectors.

 

Since the current government came into power in 2015, there has been a lot of policy change with the “command and control” posture adopted in managing the economy. For instance, exchange rates were left fixed for the first year of the administration until the distortions in the market became chaotic before some form of flexibility was allowed in the determination of the exchange rate, following market forces. Also land borders were arbitrarily closed to imports, despite the huge damage it could have on the country’s trade within the ECOWAS sub-region. This had a direct impact on prices of items. These policy somersaults have caused capital flight. The political uncertainty played a role in the downward trend of markets. In the equities market, huge foreign portfolio investments were lost to the economy. There has also been a downturn in portfolio investments, fixed capital investment, foreign direct investments and capital importation. There was also a record decline in capital importation of about $1,548.88 million in the fourth quarter of 2016, a 15% decrease from the third quarter of same year and in the first quarter of 2017, capital importation was recorded to be about $908.27 million. The result has been job losses and the dwindling capacity to create jobs, The poor performance of different sectors of the economy had created uncertainty and unemployment, another issue is Another issue is Nigeria’s weak currency, which has been bad for manufacturing. As many people only have access to foreign currency through unofficial sources, prices of raw materials for manufacturing have affected the sector and its output. Several organizations cannot scale or employ more people.

The low level of infrastructure in the economy is another critical factor. For instance, farmers need to move their goods to markets. The routes that link the farms to the cities are in poor shape. Power supply is erratic, and security is poor. These factors add up to a poor level of investment, meanwhile the labor supply is growing. People are graduating from higher institutions, but the demand for labor is shrinking. There are not enough jobs for young people who are leaving school. People with A levels as their highest qualification had the highest rate of unemployment with 50.7%, followed by people with first degree or higher national diploma at 40.1%.

Another risk factor of Nigeria’s poor economy is the recent pandemic that ensued, measures like lockdowns, social distancing, work from home and travel restrictions significantly affected the economy. The aviation sector and related services were one of the worst hits. The entertainment sector – movies, sports, shows – was caught in the stay-home mandate. Small and medium scale industry was also badly hit, particularly micro businesses – those who earn on a day-to-day basis. Even with the opening of the economy, the effects remain. And we’re not sure COVID-19 is going away in a hurry.

Now, on to the main reason for this article, many Nigerians have decided to seek jobs in the UK health department because it’s easier to obtain a visa through it, if you’re reading this article and your main goal is to know how to migrate to the UK in search of a health care job this article would be of help to you.

Migrating to the UK as a caregiver may seem to be a simple task, but there are numerous factors to consider once you begin the planning process. To apply as a caregiver from Nigeria, you must meet all of the following requirements:

  1. Be at least 18 years old.
  2. Be a citizen or permanent resident of Nigeria.
  3. Have a valid passport that is valid for at least 6 months after your application date.
  4. Have a medical certificate issued by a doctor in Nigeria that confirms that you are free from illnesses that could be transmitted to UK residents (for example, tuberculosis). The certificate must be provided on official letterhead and be stamped by the Ministry of Health.
  5. Have no criminal convictions in any country, including the UK, regardless of how long ago it happened or whether you were charged or convicted (unless you have received a pardon.

What is the UK Care Worker Visa?

Officially known as the UK Health and Care Visa, the visa allows healthcare professionals and care workers to come to work in the United Kingdom in a number of jobs in the Shortage Occupation List (SOL) for the health and care sector. The SOL was expanded in December 2021 to include care jobs effectively allowing care takers to become eligible to apply for the visa from February 15, 2022.

A visa is required for Nigerians to work in the United Kingdom. There are several types of visas available. The best visa for this role is the “Health and Care Worker visa,” which falls under the skilled worker category and was previously known as Tier 2 visa.

A Health and Care Worker visa allows medical professionals to travel to or remain in the United Kingdom to work in adult social care for the NHS or an NHS supplier.

Benefits of Working Care Jobs in the UK

Demand for talented care workers is rising year on year and there’s never been a better time to consider this as a professional option. There are many fantastic benefits to working in health and social care, both in terms of the rewarding nature of the role day-to-day and in terms of how this role could support the progression of your career long-term. Below are a few pointers to note about working in this sector and why it’s more than meets the eyes.

 

1.No two days will be alike.

If you don’t like your days to be boring, working in care may be an excellent choice for you! The great thing about working in nursing homes is that you never know what will happen from one hour to the next.

You and your coworkers will collaborate to create a fun and enjoyable environment for the seniors in your care. What this entails will most likely be determined by the specific interests of residents and their family members, so you will be encouraged to participate in a wide range of activities.

Residents’ care needs are also likely to change from day to day, so this is an excellent job opportunity if you enjoy working with people.

 

2. It’s an extremely social job.

If you enjoy chatting and socializing, why not choose a job that allows you to do so all day? A care assistant’s job is incredibly people-focused; you will not only be responsible for the physical care of residents, but you will also be heavily involved in getting to know them and supporting their emotional and social needs.

In addition to the elderly in your care, you will be responsible for communicating with residents’ family members and visitors. These people may struggle to adjust to the fact that their loved ones are in a nursing home, so caution is advised.

Finally, there are few jobs that allow you to converse over a cup of coffee.

 

3.It is a flexible and family-friendly job.

Many people who gravitate toward care work do so in part to be able to accommodate their own family responsibilities. Care home workers can work very flexible hours in order to care for their own children.

There are part-time positions available, or many colleagues will choose to work compressed hours, which means you can work full-time hours over fewer days. Many care home residents will require assistance 24 hours a day, so there will be plenty of opportunities to work hours that suit you and your lifestyle. You could even choose to spread your thirty-six hours over three days, giving you a four-day weekend.

 

4.Hire based on values rather than qualifications.

The care industry is one of the last places where hiring is truly based on personality and values rather than CV strength.

The most important thing is that adults are deeply concerned about the well-being of others, so one major attribute we’re always on the lookout for are caring, kind, friendly, understanding, sensitive, and approachable people. It’s also critical that you can bring a sense of humor to the role, in addition to being able to work effectively in a team.

Contrary to popular belief, you don’t always need to be fully qualified to find a job in the care industry.

Many employers, such as Nurse Plus, provide relevant on-the-job training to ensure that their workers have all the necessary skills in place to get started. There’s also the opportunity to continue professional development with further qualifications.

So not only will be fully trained and prepared for your position, but you’ll also even get to add real qualifications to your CV.

 

5.It is extremely rewarding to care for others.

Few things are more fundamentally rewarding than caring for others. Caring for others is a huge privilege, whether it is assisting an elderly person to enjoy their day, assisting them with short- or long-term health needs, or even easing the way for someone as they approach the end of their life.

At the end of each shift, you’ll be able to go home knowing that you’ve made a significant difference in residents’ quality of life. The daily care you provide to the elderly will be valued, appreciated, and critical to maintaining their quality of life.

As well as being among the most rewarding jobs you can do, being a carer also provides true job satisfaction. Providing care for someone on a regular basis allows you make a real difference to someone’s life, particularly when you are supporting someone who is living with a condition that requires a wider range of more complex care needs. Whether it is making sure someone is taking their medication correctly or ensuring they make it to their doctors’ appointment on time, knowing you have done your best for your customer will provide you with a sense of job satisfaction rare in most other professions.
