Contracts and written statements

Employment law and good practice advice for contracts and written statements

As an employer it’s crucial to get the details of contracts and written statements correct. Failure to do so can result in disputes and potential employment tribunal claims further down the line.

This event will guide you through the whole process, from the formation of a contract to its termination. You will learn about different types of contracts and how to legally vary a contract. You will also gain an understanding of who should receive written statements and what they need to include.
