Employee Secondment Letter Agreement (External)

A secondment is an arrangement whereby an employee is temporarily assigned to work for another company or organisation. This may be a different employer within the group or a separate employer, such as a client or customer. This Secondment Letter Agreement (External) is between the company whose employee is being seconded (‘the secondee’) and the secondee. It should be used by the company to set down the terms of the secondment to the host company or organisation.

The idea behind a secondment is that the company ‘lends’ the secondee to the host company or organisation but the company remains the employer throughout and the secondee’s continuity of employment is preserved.

This Secondment Letter Agreement covers:
• The purpose;
• Duration; and
• Terms of the secondment.

It also covers issues of confidentiality, data protection and the arrangements for the end of the secondment.

For more information on secondments, see the Secondments Information Page.
