What the Contract Covers
Since 6 April 2020, you have to give all new employees a contract on their first working day. But, another important reason is that if things ever did go sour with your employee, this is the number one document that can make or break your business.
This Employment Contract covers all the things you'd expect, such as who the contract is between, their job title, rate of pay, as well as:
Probationary period - Confirm there is a probation period just in case things don't work out 🤔
Notice Periods - In the event they resign or you need to make them redundant, this confirms their written notice to you (and you to them)
Holiday entitlement - what they are entitled to in terms of annual leave and bank holidays ☀️
Hours of Working - The part-time hours. Plus details around working time regulations.
Pay & Benefits - What they get paid and when and also benefit entitlements, such as pension to comply with pension enrolment laws etc.
Confidentiality clause - so they can't share your strategies and secrets 😡
Non-compete agreement - in case they get poached by your competition or try to get up a business in competition with you 😢
Intellectual property – so YOU own this and not your employee 😈
GDPR - so you comply with data protection by getting consent to hold their data ⚖
Sickness Absence - Confirm their entitlement
Termination - This includes garden leave, pay in lieu of notice and dismissals, so you have options in case things go horribly wrong.
And so much more!
