Directors' Service Contracts

In addition to the terms that by law are required to be included, a service contract sets out many other matters in the employment relationship and Net Lawman is clear that these documents:

  • are up to date with current applicable employment law
  • follow current best practice disciplinary procedures recommended by ACAS and other bodies
  • help protect the company from claims both in an Industrial Tribunal and in court as a result of a common law dispute
  • protect the director from unreasonable demands by other directors and shareholders
  • set out remuneration and benefits
  • cover what happens at termination, and in case of redundancy
  • include strong protection for the organisation’s intellectual property
  • minimise the administrative burden of legal compliance
