At JLP we have an HR department as well as a payroll department, and one of the areas of HR that we specialise in is contracts of employment.

There are, of course, many reasons why all employees should have a contract of employment with their employer. However, over the last few weeks, we have had lots of enquiries from companies asking us about one specific issue: what happens in terms of calculating holiday pay with employees who have not had any form of contract of employment?

We have been happy to help out, but best advice is to always have a contract of employment between employer and employee from the beginning.

Contracts of employment and all things HR are looked after by our HR specialist Maddie, who has over 20 years’ experience in the field. Please contact us if you need any help or advice on contracts of employment or any other HR issue.
