An employment contract (sometimes referred to as a written statement of employment particulars) and employee handbook should detail your staff members working hours, pay, and main terms of employment.  It is also your opportunity as a business or organisation to set out your expectations of staff members.  There are ‘express terms’ such as pay and hours, ‘statutory terms’ that need to be included by law, and there are also ‘implied terms’ which are those that are obvious and don’t need to be written down such as stealing from your employer.

In line with the Good Work Plan 2020 legislation, as a business or organisation you need to provide employees with a contract on or before their first day of work.  It's also important to understand that you can’t just change someone’s contract of employment without a period of consultation otherwise you could end up in an Employment Tribunal.
