Annualised Hours Employment Contract
This Annualised Hours Employment Contract allows for a total number of hours to be agreed between Employer and Employee, which are then worked in variable quantities over the year, allowing flexible working patterns to be used.
Employers must provide workers and employees with a written statement of their main terms and conditions of employment and this is often known as a Standard Form Section One Statement.
This Employment Contract covers the requirements of a Standard Form Section One Statement. This contract complies with these requirements and must be provided to the employee or worker by day one of employment.
Typically, the working hours are divided into hours which are set (e.g. on a rota, and reserve hours) when the Employee can be called into work as needed (e.g. to cover employee absence). Payment is usually in 12 equal instalments. This contract is drafted on this basis.
This contract is of most relevance to industries that have peaks and troughs of demand, and can be a way of getting around the need for overtime. Employers must be careful to make sure that Employees are paid at least the rate of the national minimum wage under such a contract and should take particular care when long hours are worked at times of peak demand.
