Hi
I work as an HR Administrator for a corporate law firm. It’s a large business that has lawyers and staff who provide legal services for different business and industries. My concern is it might be haram as the lawyers specialise in different fields and industries such as providing legal services for banks and insurance advice as well as legal advice and litigation for the financial sector. They have a lot of FTSE 100/ 500 clients and clients who operate in a multitude of industries such as hospitality, finance, travel etc. They have a lot of corporate clients who are banks and therefore banks deal with interest and other haram financial activities. They have a Fraud team, finance litigation, an occupational health team to name only a few. they have a lot of different clients. Is this permissible as I work in HR and I’m not involved in any of the legal activities? For context my role in HR involves completing templates of contracts of employment, doing background checks on new starts, right to work checks, answering employee queries regarding various different things such as their holiday entitlement, recording sickness absences. Assisting payroll, salary changes, creating employee change letters, producing MI reports Etc. I’m not sure if my job is halal or not but I’m not sure - for example my thoughts were that I conduct the background check that allows the employee to complete work for the banks and for example I create the contract which the lawyer signs (although I’m not involved in recruitment activities)
Thanks
