Wansbroughs Solicitors New Employment Contract Package If you are a small business or a start-up business with 20 employees or less and need to provide employment contracts and a staff handbook to your employees, then our new Contract Package may be something you’ll be interested in. We have developed a Contract Package, compliant with the Employment Rights Act 1996, intended for small or start-up businesses with a maximum of 20 employees. It will include an employment contract for employees, as well as a staff handbook, which will contain a disciplinary procedure policy, grievance procedure policy, sickness procedure policy, privacy notice and data protection policy. If interested, you will be invited to a 30-minute meeting, which can be conducted over the phone/Skype or in person. This meeting is an opportunity for us to get to know your business and gather the information needed to produce the documents. The template contract and the staff handbook with all its contents will be provided at a cost of £500 plus VAT. We can also assist by inputting all the relevant employee details, (e.g. put in employee names, addresses, salaries etc.) for an additional £150 plus VAT. This Contract Package is for a business with: 1. Permanent Employees, (i.e. they are not a contractor, worker, agency staff, bank worker, zero hour contract or fixed term); 2. Employee role descriptions in a separate document; 3. Employees who have, (a) a set salary which is reviewed each year and may increase; (b) set hours of work; and (c) set holiday entitlements. If you offer additional employee benefits such as bonus, commission, company car or payment of expenses; place restrictions on your employee once they leave employment; place employees on garden leave or have bespoke terms that are applicable to the business, this is not included within this Contract Package. If you need an employment package similar to this but think it goes beyond what this particular package is offering, then still do get in touch and we can discuss how we can assist. Wansbroughs Solicitors are offering this new package until 31st January 2020.
