It is a statutory requirement to provide all employees with a written statement of terms within 2 months of the employment starting. The statement of terms is a simple but essential record of the basics of the employment relationship. A written contract also helps to provide a useful if not essential record of the agreed terms between employers and their employees, workers or freelancers. Indeed the contract will often prove essential if the terms are later in dispute. It is also important to have up to date policies and procedures, not only do these help to make clear what is expected of employees but also helps to create and maintain a professional working environment. Many policies set out legal procedures which are mandatory for all employers, no matter how small.
