Apprenticeship Contracts

The government have issued new standard apprenticeship contracts, (40 different versions actually) covering all sorts of different sectors.

These are not compulsory, but simply good practice, and the government has said that it trying to favour the employer more.

If you are an Arcturus (retainer) client, we are able to provide an apprenticeship contract which is updated in line with the government model at no charge. Please do let us know.
