Guidance Notes: Job-Share Employment Contract

These Guidance Notes – Job-Sharing explain the issues employers need to consider when setting up and managing job share arrangements.

Job-sharing a full-time role between two (or more) individuals can offer flexibility for both employer and employee. To work well, the arrangement needs clarity on how work will be divided, working hours, what happens if the other job-sharer is absent, and (crucially) what happens if one job-sharer leaves.

As a job share arrangement may follow a flexible working request, employers may also wish to review the Simply-Docs suite of flexible working documents to help ensure correct procedures are followed.
