Pub and Restaurant Employment Contracts

This collection contains employment contracts tailored for roles in pubs, restaurants and catering environments. The templates cover general catering staff roles as well as role-specific contracts for bar staff, waiting staff and food handlers.

Legal compliance and Employment Rights Act update

These employment contracts have been drafted and kept up to date by employment solicitors and HR professionals. The contracts have been updated to reflect the statutory sick pay changes set by the Employment Rights Act, under which SSP is now payable from the first full day of sickness absence.

Use these contracts for pub, restaurant and catering roles

The templates are designed for the kinds of operational and customer-facing roles commonly found in hospitality businesses. Each contract is targeted at a particular role or working pattern, so employers can select the most suitable starting point for the job they are hiring for.

The Catering Staff Employment Contract (Full Time) is suitable for a full-time catering role, while the Catering Staff Employment Contract (Part-time) provides an equivalent starting point where the role is part-time.

Bar staff, waiting staff and food handler contracts

For customer-facing pub or bar work, the Bar Staff Employment Contract is tailored to bar staff roles. The Waiter/Waitress Employment Contract is designed for waiting staff in restaurants, pubs and similar hospitality settings.

The Food Handler Employment Contract is aimed at roles involving food handling, where hygiene and food-handling expectations are particularly relevant.

Pub, cafe and restaurant offer letters

An employment offer letter is usually issued before or alongside the contract of employment, so the offer, role, working pattern and contractual terms are consistent from the outset. The matching Pub, Cafe and Restaurant Employment Offer Letters can be used when making an offer for bar staff, waiting staff, food handling or catering roles.

Hospitality-specific terms reflected in the contracts

Depending on which contract is used, the wording may cover practical points that often arise in a pub, restaurant or catering setting, including staff rotas and working patterns, tips and gratuities arrangements, hygiene and food-handling expectations, stock control and security measures, and secondary employment restrictions.
