Hello all, i am starting a new nanny job in a few weeks time, i am just going through the rough copy of my contract, but wondered what else needs to be on it!!!!
whats already on my contract......
1, names and addresss, mine and theirs,
2, commencement of employment,
3, duties,
4, place of work,
5, pay,weekly, tax and national insurance,
6, work times,
7, holidays,
8, sickness,
9, pension,
10, suspension,
11, termination,
12, confidential information,

the only thing at the moment that i can think of is annual pay rise, and overtime, can anyone else think of anything that i should mention to my new employers!!!

disciplinary procedure (may be under no 10 and 11 in your list)

Pay review (it isn't a pay rise, as it may not go up!).

Overtime, Bank Holidays (you may have included these with number 6/7 in your list) - Make sure you understand the current Bank Holiday situation, and take account that it changes in April 2009. Holiday Entitlement

Outings - you may want to have something on the contract about the use of your car, their car, public transport etc.

Expenses - outings, playgroups etc
Milage payments for use of car if applicable
Meals provided for you at work

if you want you can give me your email address and I will send over the contract my employers gave me, but will obviously have to disguise sensitive data?

nbee84 - least I got ALL the letters - not in the right order though - blame my typing skills for that

Hi all, funny i never noticed any spelling mistakes, just checked what i have just written in case i spelt anything wrong!!
I guess that's why i'm not a teacher, thanks again for all your replies
