Help you to understand your obligations for employment contracts

Are you…

...a sole trader with no employees?

If the answer is yes then you don’t need any contracts at this stage. However, you might want to talk to us about the contracts you use for freelance staff or contractors.

...thinking about taking someone on for the first time?

Legally, you must give your employee a written statement of his/her terms and conditions within 2 months of their start date. Terms and conditions of employment cover information like their wages, how and how often they can expect to be paid, what holidays they’re entitled to, etc.

...a small business owner employing people?

As above, your staff are all legally entitled to have a written statement of their terms and conditions so if you haven't given them that information, you need to make sure that you do. If this applies to you, don't worry - we can quickly and simply arrange that for you.

Why work with us on your employment contracts?

We can make sure that you comply with your legal obligations, giving you peace of mind.

Although there are legal requirements for employment contracts, it's also essential that they reflect the needs of YOUR business - we can tailor them to suit you and your business

If you've ever read a 20 page contract full of whyfores, hereunders and thereins, you'll understand the benefits of keeping it simple. You need to understand your contracts to know what you're asking of your staff but more importantly, they need to understand what they're signing. We make sure that everybody knows exactly what their contract means which cuts down on queries, questions and misunderstandings.

If you’d like some help with straightforward employment contracts for your staff, just get in touch to discuss your requirements.

"Katherine and Jason have worked with me recently on recruitment strategy and Zero Hours Contracts, which I know from experience is not every HR Manager’s cup of tea due to complexities and areas of risk for employers. Their approach and advice has been fantastic.. really top drawer. They quickly understood my businesses needs and have been open minded and commercial in their approach and recommendations. I highly recommend them based on their ability to put themselves in the employers seat, identify the challenges, and come up with workable solutions considering both the employer and the employee. They have helped me to look at things both short term and long term and their overall advice has been extremely valuable."
