MY TOP TIP

💡Don’t just whizz this doc over to your employee via email – without any upfront explanation about what it is, why you're introducing it and why it’s so important 🙏

Allow them time to go through it properly (ideally 30 days) and give them the opportunity to ask you questions. That way, they’re more likely to remember the contents – and as a result – you’ll reduce the number of workplace problems you get in the future.

STILL NOT SURE IT’S RIGHT FOR YOU?

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.
