Create a written statement of employment

This tool will create a written statement of employment or statement of employment particulars tailored for an individual employee. At the end, you will be able to download the completed statement to your own computer, print it off and give it to your employee.

If filled in correctly, this tool will provide you with a document covering all the employment terms and conditions you legally have to give your employee. It must be issued not later than two months after they begin their employment.

If you have already provided a written contract of employment or letter of engagement containing all of the items required in this statement, there is no need for a statement to be provided as well.

Employers who issue written contracts or letters of engagement which do not cover all the items required may wish to expand them in future. Statements do not need to be provided for employees who are employed for less than one month.

Remember, if you have already made verbal or written commitments to your employee, eg a start date or salary, you must enter the same information within this tool.

This tool should take around 25 minutes to complete. If you don't have the time to complete the statement now, you can save your answers online and return later.

You can also view an example of a written statement of employment, which you can download and complete in your own time. Download our example of a written statement of employment (PDF, 218K) - Opens in a new window.
