All employees should have an up to date contract of employment, reflecting their current terms and conditions. We approach drafting contracts by looking at the needs of your business and the things that matter to you. We provide our clients with bespoke contracts which safeguard your business and frequently contain the following:
- Provisions to protect your confidential information and intellectual property.
- Post termination restrictions tailored to the employee’s position and responsibilities.
- Garden leave and notice provisions which allow you to restrict the activity of an exiting employee.
It is important that employee handbooks have core policies and procedures to protect your business. In particular, anti-bullying and equal opportunities policies can be important tools when defending discrimination claims. Increasingly employers require more detailed sickness and capability management procedures to address problem absence. We tailor policies to your requirements and can advise on your internal sickness management procedures.
