Employment Contracts

The relationship between an employer and employee is an important one that starts at the recruitment stage. It is one which is always governed by some form of contract. Contracts of employment can be oral, written or a mixture of the two and can last for an indefinite period of time or for a fixed term.

Ideally an employment contract should :

  • be in writing addressing as many aspects of the working relationship as possible
  • as a minimum set out the prescribed terms as required by law

Our lawyers at Hart Brown can assist with:

  • drafting contracts of employment which best suit the needs of the business
  • drafting clearly defined terms ensuring your business and its staff have clarity in their role
  • drafting a staff handbook setting out terms which apply to all staff
  • drafting of policies and procedures.
  • issues which arise during the course of an individual’s employment
  • interpreting existing contracts of employment
  • advising on how they interrelate with the law

To speak to someone who can help with your business, employment contracts or any other employment issue call, email or request a call back from one of our specialist lawyers.
