Contracts of employment

The law specifies that contracts of employment must contain certain details, and your employer must give you your terms of employment in writing.

This page explains why your contract of employment might change, and what to do if your employer suggests changing your contract.

Since 4 March 2019, zero-hours contracts are prohibited in most cases.
