YES – If your staff do not have the correct employment contract in place then you are breaking the law.

If you hire staff whether that be casual, part time, fixed term or permanent you need to ensure that they all have the right contract.  A correct and up-to-date contract for each employee is not only a legal requirement, but it helps you set out the terms and conditions of employment for your business.

Yes – In some instances, you are required by law to provide relevant policies and procedures.

In certain circumstances it is a legal requirement to have basic policies in place (such as Health & Safety, Grievance and Dismissal policies and procedures), but in order to have consistency with your employees it is highly recommended that you have a set of basic policies and procedures in place.

As your business grows it becomes more important to have a policy and procedure handbook (staff handbook) in place.  A bespoke and comprehensive staff handbook is drafted for your specific organisational needs and perfectly reflects the ethos and style of your company. This ultimately prevents misunderstandings and ensures the smooth running of your business in order to develop the working relationship practices between your company and your employees.

We take the time to get to know your business to make sure that your HR paperwork represents your company values and meets all the legal requirements.
