my mum had hers drawn up all buy them, as they have basic templates and just adapt it to your needs. just basicly wright down what you need in it, conditions of work, job discritions, employment rights (i.e. holiday allowed, notic thats needs to be given ect) and anything else.
i good clasue to have it in is that they HAVE to give a specified amount of notice before leaving the job, otherwise you withhold there pay. otherwise they wlll just leave, and you cant do anything, you HAVE to pay them. its fucker when it happens

I very much doubt that statement is true.........a piece of paper with a few hand written contract terms would be legally binding as long as it's signed

Extract taken from an employment law book 'at the one extreme, an employment contract may be a document drawn up by solicitors and signed by both parties; at the other extreme it may consist of a handshake and a 'see you on Monday'

The essential items to be added to the contract:
- the names of employer and employee
- the date on which employment began
- whether any service with a previous employer forms part of the employee's continuous employment
- pay (scale or rate and intervals at which paid)
- hours of work
- holiday and holiday pay entitlement
- sick leave and sick pay entitlement
- pension and pension schemes
- length of notice of termination to be given on either side
- the title of the job which the employee is employed to do
