Employment documentation

HR Audits: A health check for your paperwork

To ensure your existing employment documents and procedures are right for your business, we can carry out a thorough HR health check.

If anything needs to change, we make recommendations as part of a detailed report.

Director service agreements

Whether you’re an employer or a senior executive, we can draft your director service agreements, advising and negotiating as necessary.

Contracts of employment

For the benefit of your business and your people, you’ll want contracts tailored to suit your business culture and specific needs. We can draft them accordingly, and help with any related matters – such as varying contracts, termination of contracts, or any breaches of contract (post-termination restrictions) that might trigger the need for performance management or disciplinary or grievance procedures. We can also develop zero hours contracts.

You might also need advice on your responsibilities under the Pensions Act. For example, if you opt for contractual enrolment rather than auto enrolment, we can prepare contractual enrolment clauses for your contracts.

Staff handbooks

If you need help to create a comprehensive staff handbook, or individual policies within it, we can tailor them to your organisation and culture. We can also review existing handbooks or individual policies, and advise on implementing them. Plus, we offer training on any element of your staff handbook.

Employment status and consultancy agreements

Due to your obligations with HMRC, employment tribunals or the new auto enrolment requirements of the Pensions Act, you might need help to assess the status of your workforce. We work with you to do this, always bearing in mind the specific needs of your organisation.

Also, if you plan to engage consultants, we can prepare consultancy agreements to reflect the relationship.
