Document background
The Offer Letter and Appointment Letter serves as a crucial document in the employment relationship under English and Welsh law. It is typically used when extending formal employment offers to successful candidates and formalizing their appointment within the organization. The document combines the initial offer of employment with detailed terms and conditions, ensuring compliance with UK employment legislation. This dual-purpose format provides clarity for both parties while meeting statutory requirements for written particulars of employment. The document is particularly important as it forms the basis of the employment contract and helps prevent future disputes by clearly establishing terms at the outset.
