Employment contracts are not (yet) a legal requirement though, by law, all employers need to issue written particulars of employment within eight weeks of commencement of employment. This is much more than just a paperwork exercise for even the smallest employers so it’s so important to get it right. Employment contracts provide for a much more professional image, enable important clarification on key issues and help with communication.
Staff handbooks are often ridiculed as being something from the past. However, these days it is more important than ever to have clear and concise employment procedures. The handbook is useful because it
a) Focuses the mind of the employer to consider its policies and procedures, what’s acceptable what is not
b) It ensures that some thought is given to legal compliance and/or good practice
c) Both employer and staff member know where they stand.
Putting together employment contracts and staff handbooks can be one of those permanent “to do” tasks, let My Staff Manager make this much easier
