UK employment contract draft

Write the terms you want in the contract. A written statement of employment particulars is a different document, and making this PDF does not provide that statement.

How to fill this in

GOV.UK says the written statement is not an employment contract. The principal statement is due on or before the first day, and the wider statement within two months.

Pay, hours, holiday, and place of work stay blank until you type them. This page does not insert 5.6 weeks or any other statutory figure.

An offer letter is earlier and separate. This draft does not complete the written statement.

Choose A4 or US Letter before you download. Empty pay, dates, hours, and leave stay empty. Clauses you leave blank are omitted. The PDF does not add an at-will, non-compete, arbitration, termination, or probation clause.

FAQ

Does this PDF meet the written-statement duty?

No. The written statement of employment particulars is a separate document. Writing a contract here does not provide that statement.

Does it fill in holiday?

No. The holiday box stays empty unless you type a figure you have chosen.

Which currency does it use?

Pounds sterling. Dates on a UK draft are day, month, year.
