Employees must be provided with a statement of written particulars of employment, setting out the key pieces of information governing the employee’s employment. A contract of employment or letter of engagement will constitute a statement of written particulars.
The particulars must be provided by the date on which the employment starts at the latest, although information relating to pension provision, collective agreements, training and disciplinary and grievance procedures may be provided up to two months after employment starts.
If the written particulars change during the employee’s employment, the employer must provide them with a written statement of changes within one month.
