Specimen Contract Documentation
Available for both commercial businesses and GP and GDP surgeries, this is probably the most detailed Specimen Contract presently available.
This document provides a full, written contract of employment. It is drafted to an extremely high standard, and covers almost every conceivable area of difficulty most businesses of any type could face.
There are two versions, one aimed specifically at the commercial business sector (both large and small) and the other for surgeries.
In each case the main contract runs to approximately 40 clauses. It includes all the written statement requirements. In addition, there is a very detailed model Staff Handbook, a disciplinary and grievance procedure, and an appeals procedure. There are also the following policies:
- Health and Safety Policy
- Equal Opportunities Policy
- Harassment Policy
- Maternity Leave Policy
- Paternity Leave Policy
- Adoption Leave Policy
- Parental Leave Policy
- Dependant Leave Policy
- Policy to Request Flexible Working
- Policy for Monitoring of Telephone, Email and Internet
- Recruitment Policy
- Data Protection Policy
- Stress at Work Policy
- Public Interest Disclosure Policy
- Reference Policy
- Drugs and Alcohol Policy
- Retirement Policy
The specimen contract and associated documentation are easy to personalise for your organisation (with clear instructions), and are kept up to date via a subscription system, providing newsletters and CDs throughout the year..
The contract is presently priced at £176 + VAT, including the subscription to the updates during the current year. (This represents exceptional value - the contract would probably cost £5,000 to be drafted individually). There is also a regular newsletter highlighting relevant changes to the law, explaining, in detail, how the clauses operate, as well as the law behind them.
