Contracts

So, I’m guessing you’re here because you might need a contract for your new employee? Or maybe you've already got employees working for you, who don't have a contract? (One that you're happy with anyway).  

Either way, I’m glad you’re here. Let me tell you a bit more about this Employment Contract Template and why this is a great investment for your business.  

There are two options to choose from - Full-time employee (working a full week) or a part-time employee (working fewer hours per week e.g. 3 days per week or 3 hours, five days per week). 

WHY YOU NEED TO HAVE A CONTRACT FOR AN EMPLOYEE

Well firstly, it's the law. Since 1 April 2020, you have to give all new employees a contract on their first working day. Plus, on a purely practical level, it ensures that they know what is expected of them and what they are getting from you, i.e. their hours of work, holidays etc.

But, another important reason is that if things ever did go sour with your employee, or they tried to screw you over, this is the number one document that can make or break your business.

In this template, it covers the following situations, and many more:

😡 Confidentiality - so they can't share your strategies and secrets

😢 Non-compete agreements - in case they get poached by your competition

💬 Clarity - to prevent misunderstandings over what they’re entitled to

😈 Intellectual property – so YOU own this and not your employee

💷 Caveats - to avoid paying employees when you shouldn’t have to

⚖ GDPR - so you comply with the law by getting consent to hold their data

🤔 Probation periods - just in case things don't work out 

WHAT YOU'LL GET

👉 My well-written and comprehensive job offer letter and Employment Contract Template, is instantly emailed to you in Microsoft Word format. It's 100% compliant with the laws of England and is designed to protect you and your business if things were ever to go horribly wrong. And when the law changes, and I update this template, you'll get the new version for free. 

👉 Plus, you'll get my easy-peasy instructions on how to personalise your contract, along with notes and FAQs. These explain the very important clauses and how they’ll protect you – as well as how to send it your employee and what they need to do.

WHY GET THIS CONTRACT?

It’s tempting to download a cheap or freebie template elsewhere. But as a smart business owner, I'm sure you know that you don't get anything good for free. Here's why this Employment Contract Template is perfect for you 👇

✅ I know you're busy, but equally I'm sure you don't want to compromise on quality. I’ve poured 18 years of HR experience into creating this, to offer you the BEST contract template I can. 

✅ With my easy to follow instructions, you can top and tail it in minutes to make it your own. And what’s more, you can re-use it time and again as your workforce grows 👍 

✅ It’s written in a language EVERYONE can understand, to eliminate all future disputes. This is to stop you and your employee signing up to something you might not really understand.

✅ As you get an updated version for free every time the law changes, this price is actually a complete steal! It works out under 50p per day, for one year. So, if you plan to be in business for a while, and have big growth plans, you're totally sorted. 

STILL NOT SURE  IT'S RIGHT FOR YOU?

So, I’m guessing you’re here because you've applied for some funding via the Kickstart Scheme and now you need a contract template to send to them.   

If so, let me tell you a bit more about this Kickstart Contract Template and why this is a great investment for your business.  

WHAT'S THE KICKSTART SCHEME?

The Kickstart Scheme is a £2 billion fund to create hundreds of thousands of high quality 6-month work placements for young people, fully funded by the Government. So, you can have people work for you, and receive funding from the Goverment to pay for it. 

However, there are a few stipulations which employers need to adhere to in order to receive the wage subsidy. The Kickstart Scheme job placements must: 

• Last six months 
• Be at least 25 hours per week (employers can top-up wages if the role is over this) 
• Include support for young people to help them get work after they finish their Kickstart Scheme job (if not taken on longer term following the placement) 
• Be ‘additional’ – this means the job would not exist without Kickstart Scheme grant funding and must not replace existing/planned jobs or cause existing employers or contractors to reduce their employment.  

WHY YOU NEED TO HAVE A CONTRACT FOR KICKSTART WORK PLACEMENT?

Well firstly, it's the law and part of the Kickstart Rules.

Since 1 April 2020, you have to give all new employees a contract on their first working day. Plus, on a purely practical level, it ensures that they know what is expected of them and what they are getting from you, i.e. their hours of work, holidays etc.

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.

WHAT YOU'LL GET

👉 My well-written and comprehensive job offer letter and Kickstart Contract Template, is instantly emailed to you in Microsoft Word format. It's 100% compliant with the laws of England and is designed to protect you and your business if things were ever to go horribly wrong. And when the law changes, and I update this template, you'll get the new version for free.

This Zero Hours Contract is ideal when you need a casual worker or Intern on a flexible basis i.e. for ad hoc or seasonal work. 

Essentially this is a contract with no guaranteed hours (zero hours). You simply offer them work, when you have it, and pay them for the hours they work, but by law they don't have to accept the work you offer. This person would usually be on your payroll (PAYE).

Examples of work that might require a zero-hour contract might include:

• Bank work (for example, for the NHS)
• Students or interns who can only work during university holidays
• Delivery driving / gig economy work (for example, delivering takeaway food or giving car rides during busy periods)
• Hospitality work e.g waitresses to cover busy periods
• Retail work e.g. pickers, packers etc to handle seasonal high demands.
• Warehouse work

WHY YOU NEED TO HAVE A CONTRACT

Well firstly, it's the law. Plus, on a purely practical level, it ensures that they know what is expected of them and what they are getting from you (and not getting from you), i.e. their hours of work, holidays, sick pay etc.

But, another important reason is that if things ever did go sour with your casual worker, or they tried to screw you over or claim they are an employee, this is the number one document that can make or break your business. 

In this template, it clarifies this person is a worker (not an employee) and covers the following situations, and many more:

👌 This is a zero hours contract, with no guaranteed pay or hours

😡 Confidentiality - so they can't share your strategies and secrets

💬 Clarity - to prevent misunderstandings over what they’re entitled to

💷 Caveats - to avoid paying your casual workers when you shouldn’t have to

⚖ GDPR - so you comply with the law by getting consent to hold their data

🤔 Termination clause - just in case things don't work out

THE LEGAL BIT

For the purposes of the Fixed-term Employees (Prevention of Less Favourable Treatment) Regulations 2002 (SI 2002/2034), a fixed-term employee is one employed under a contract of employment that will terminate on:

• The expiry of a specific term e.g. 6-months;
• The completion of a particular project or task; or

Where an employee has been continuously employed on a series of successive fixed-term contracts for four years or more, they will automatically achieve permanent status, unless there is an objective reason that justifies a further renewal for a fixed term.
