Night Work Employment Offer Letter

The Night Worker Employment Offer Letter is for employers making an offer of employment where the employee will work at night.

It has been created to accompany the Night Worker Employment Contract.

Employment offer for night work

The night worker documents are designed for situations where an employee works during the period between 11pm and 6am, as specified by the Working Time Regulations 1998.

Core night worker offer details

The offer letter confirms the key terms of the proposed employment, including:

• job title;
• workplace;
• remuneration; and
• proposed start date.

Night work rules and health assessment

Employers should be aware that there are rules governing the number of hours that can be worked at night and that staff under the age of 18 cannot work at night.

Staff should be offered a free health assessment before they start working at night.

Conditional offer, right to work and starter documents

The employment offer is subject to references which the employer considers satisfactory.

The letter also requires the employee to provide evidence of their legal right to work in the UK and asks new joiners to bring identity documents and their P45 when they start employment.

Medical conditions, disabilities and reasonable adjustments

The offer letter asks employees to tell the employer about any medical conditions, allergies or disabilities they have.

This helps the employer consider whether any reasonable adjustments may be appropriate under the Equality Act 2010. The letter also confirms that any information provided will be treated confidentially.
