Employment Contracts, Handbooks & Policies
At SimplifyHR, we understand the importance of clear, compliant, and well-structured employment documents for protecting your business and supporting your employees. We work with you to create legally sound employment contracts, tailored employee handbooks, and robust workplace policies that meet your business needs and comply with Irish employment law.
​
Whether you need expert advice on specific HR issues or a fully outsourced HR solution, we provide practical, hands-on support to ensure your documents are up to date, your contracts are watertight, and your workplace remains compliant and well-managed.
Employment Contracts
At SimplifyHR, we customise employment contracts, contractor agreements, and service level agreements to meet your business needs, ensuring they are legally sound and fully compliant with Irish employment law.
In Ireland, the Terms of Employment (Information) Act 1994–2023 requires employers to provide employees with key terms of employment within five days of starting work, with a full written contract issued within one month. Clear, legally compliant employment contracts and policies are vital for protecting both your business and your employees.
We simplify this process for all parties involved, providing straightforward solutions. Additionally, we can help design effective confidentiality clauses tailored to your industry and consider non-solicitation and non-compete clauses as needed.
Changes to Employment Terms & Conditions
At SimplifyHR, we provide practical guidance to help navigate the complexities of contract amendments, ensuring both parties are protected and the process runs smoothly.
Altering an employee's contract or terms of employment typically requires their consent. With our expert support, these changes are handled efficiently and in full compliance with the law.
A well-drafted employment contract and addendum protect both the employee’s rights and the organisations interests, clearly outlining mutual expectations and responsibilities.
Employee Handbook
At SimplifyHR, we believe that while an employee handbook is not specifically required under Irish law, it is an invaluable tool for helping employees understand how the organisation operates and building positive employee-employer relationships.
We can assist in creating and maintaining a comprehensive, legally compliant employee handbook, which is essential for communicating workplace policies, procedures, and ensuring employees have a clear understanding of expectations.
Policies and Procedures / HR Forms
At SimplifyHR, we specialise in designing, reviewing, and updating HR policies and procedures that are clear, compliant, and tailored to your organisation’s needs.
We believe that simple, well-documented policies form the backbone of effective people management—streamlining onboarding, guiding performance management, resolving workplace conflicts, and ensuring HR processes run smoothly.
Having comprehensive, up-to-date documentation in place can also save valuable time and reduce legal risks.
Whether you need new policies designed from scratch or existing ones updated to reflect best practices and legislative changes, SimplifyHR is here to help.
