Start date on employent contracts
Hi all
I have recently moved to a new employer who currently has the option of listing "Start date to be mutually agreed" or "Start date TBC" on their new employment contracts. I have always understood that employment contracts must have a start date on them (even if this is later to be changed) to be lawful. Have I been given the wrong advice previously?
Also, the contracts for existing employees make no mention of annual leave balances etc continuing when they change roles. Is this a requirement or just nice to have?
Thanks all
