Stewardship has joined forces with Anthony Collins, to produce this employment pack primarily for Christian charities. The pack includes a model contract of employment and various policies and procedures together with explanatory notes and also includes a model service occupancy agreement with explanatory notes. The aims of the pack are to ensure that your charity employs its workers in a way that is consistent with its constitution; explain the main options available to your charity as an employer; help you choose the most appropriate terms on which to employ; give you confidence to be able to agree reasonable terms of service in a cost effective way; and help you avoid the potential pitfalls of employment law.
