CONTRACT OF EMPLOYMENT

HR Key will customize your contracts of employment to suit the needs of your business ensuring key areas are not overlooked.

A contract of employment is a legally binding document between and employer and an employee that details the rights and duties of both parties which is paramount in the event of a disagreement between parties.

Within the first 5 days of starting a job, an employer must provide their new hire with the written terms of their employment. 

Within 1 month of your new hire starting their role, you must provide them with the remaining terms of their employment.

Contracts of employment are mainly governed by the following pieces of legislation:  

• Terms of Employment (Information) Acts 1994 to 2014
• Employment (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 2018
• Protection of Employees (Fixed-Term Work) Act 2003
• The European Union (Transparent and Predictable Working Conditions) Regulations 2022, S.I. 686/2022 

HR Key will work with you to ensure you understand legislative elements of a contract such as employment equality and diversity, dignity and respect at work, protected leave, the organization of working time act, grievance and disciplinary and much more.

We have options of purchasing a once off contract template  or we can consult with your organization and complete all the administration on your behalf.
