Introduction to Contracts Of Employment Certificate
Introduction to Contracts Of Employment Certificate Course
A contract of employment represents a fundamental agreement between an employer and worker. Therefore, it needs to be clear, fair and comprehensive. To avoid misunderstandings, you also need to know how to propose and implement changes. Although contracts do not always have to be written down, it is best practice to clarify the terms and conditions on paper.
This course focuses on what should be included in a written contract, when it should be drawn up and what happens if one or both parties break its terms.
You Will Learn:
- How a contract of employment should be drawn up, why verbal contracts are not considered best practice and when they should be ready to sign
- How a worker’s status determines the content of a contract, including their rights to benefits
- The details an employer must report to HMRC and how the PAYE system works
- What happens if either party breaches the terms and conditions of an employment contract
Benefits of Taking This Course
- If you are responsible for drawing up contracts of employment, this course will help ensure that the documents you produce comply with legal requirements
- If you are a worker, this course will help you evaluate your contract of employment to ensure that it is fair
- By developing your understanding of the laws underpinning contracts, you are also in a position to help a colleague who believes they are being treated unfairly
- If you are responsible for maintaining business accounts, this course will help you decide when to report relevant information to HMRC

Amazing course with so much detail. All the modules are easy to read and flow from one subject to the next. It was really easy to enrol on the course too and I received my log in information the same day that I enrolled. I would recommend the course to anyone wishing to pursue a course in floristry.

I have just complete the nail technician diploma award and delivered professional manicures and nail extensions to my friends and family who are very pleased with their treatments! The course was easy to follow and fun to do!

I am looking to start, at some point, a career in the Painting and Decorating industry either working for an employer or myself.
This was a really interesting and surprisingly in-depth course. A good starting point for me to eventually go on to study on a level 1 Construction course at college that will include Painting and Decorating.
I wasn’t sure how good the course was going to be as it was online but I was definitely surprised at how much information was included. Really helpful for me and something I can look back at. Thank you New Skills Academy.

I took up this course initially to help me with my own dog, but found that as I worked through the material I actually started thinking that this could be something that I could use to make a second income. From start to finish I found the course engaging and interesting. I am now doing another dog related course and am experiencing the same level of enjoyment. I would recommend New Skills Academy without hesitation.
Keith Smith
I found this course incredibly useful, as it provided me with practical knowledge which I can implement in my role as a Support Worker. The videos were clear and concise, and the downloadable worksheets reinforced what I had learned as I was able to put pen to paper. Overall, a fantastic course for a great price! I am looking forward to taking on my next one.
Teleisha Harley
It was an eye opening course that was flexible and easy to access. I was able to complete it from the comfort of my own home whilst also having the tasks to complete which enabled me to check my knowledge. I know feel much more confident in my field of work and really enjoyed doing it.

Wow what an incredible insight for the start of anyone's journey in property. This course gives you so much information and there are tests and questions on each of the modules. The course is very easy to follow and well laid out. You can actually make notes on the pages of each module using the notes tab! I am very excited to say that I passed and I only spent one week on this course. I will print all the PDF information and keep it in a file with my certificate. I feel very confident for my future plans now I have completed this course.
