Health Check
The documents that govern the employment relationship between staff and employer have a significant impact on their relationship. Properly drafted documents set out what businesses can expect from their staff as well as what staff can expect from them. These documents usually include contracts of employment, offer letters, company policies and staff handbooks.
These documents should not only set out the standard terms of employment (such as salary, holiday pay, place of work and sick pay) but they should also tackle issues such as managing sickness absence, restraint of trade clauses (for example to stop ex-employees poaching your staff or competing against you after they have left your employment) or conduct in the workplace (such as grievance procedures and disciplinary procedures). Many of these issues can have a detrimental impact on your business if not dealt with clearly at the outset of employment.
If your business has some or all of these documents in place, we can review them for you to ensure they are legally up to date and that they meet your commercial objectives. If you do not have some or all of these key documents in place, we can produce them for you.
