Document background
The Internship Offer Letter is a crucial document used when an organization wishes to formally offer an internship position to a candidate in Ireland. It serves as the initial formal communication of employment terms and, upon acceptance, becomes a binding agreement between the parties. The document must comply with Irish employment law, including the Employment (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 2018 and related legislation. It typically includes essential information such as the position details, duration, working hours, compensation (if applicable), supervision arrangements, and other terms of the internship. The letter should be drafted to protect both the employer's and intern's interests while ensuring compliance with relevant employment regulations, particularly regarding minimum wage requirements, working time regulations, and health and safety obligations.
