CONTRACTS OF EMPLOYMENT

At EmployEasily HR, we can help employers prevent problems and protect their businesses from costly employment tribunals by ensuring the contracts of employment they have in place are completely up to date with current UK Employment Law and are aligned with their overall business strategy.

For Employers that already have contracts in place with their staff members, We can review all existing documents and update them as required and for Employers that have nothing in place, we can produce contracts of employment for all staff members from scratch.

Whatever your requirements are, EmployEasily HR can help! Either as a 'one-off' exercise or as part of one of our HR Service packages, EmployEasily HR will ensure your statutory obligations are met and that your business prevents problems and is protected.

Do I Really Need Contracts of Employment?

Under current UK employment law, Employers are required to provide ALL employees with a written statement of employment particulars within two months of staff members commencing work, even if they will only be working for two months, and if they fail to do so they can face employment tribunal action. This written statement must include:

• Employers name and your employees name
• Employee's Job title or a brief job description
• The date when the employment began
• Pay rate and when employee will be paid
• Employee's hours of work
• Employee's holiday entitlement
• Where the employee will be working (if they are based in more than one place it should say this along with the employer’s address)
• Sick pay arrangements
• Notice periods
• Information about disciplinary and grievance procedures
• Any collective agreements that affect employment terms or conditions
• Pensions and pension schemes
• If they are not a permanent employee how long their employment is expected to continue, or if they are a fixed term worker the date their employment will end
