Employer Documentation Kit and Library


Employer Documentation Kit

The Kit provides essential documentation to help you maintain sound record-keeping systems on employment matters.  It includes fundamental checklists, forms and letters covering a myriad of employment events around recruitment, performance management, leave entitlements and requests, grievance, dismissal and termination - 48 documents in total!

Please be aware that the Kit does not include employment agreements, contracts or appraisal systems and it's not a comprehensive legal guide.  This is because there's no one size fits all when it comes to contracts (so it would be inappropriate for us to provide such documents to you).  The Kit doesn't replace specialist employment advice from your legal advisors on a case by case basis.

The Kit assists you to comply with the fundamental documentation requirements of the Employment Relations Act 2000 and the Holidays Act 2003. 

Your investment for the Employer Documentation Kit is $495.00 plus GST.  If you wish to purchase the kit, please contact us.


Due to the ever-changing employment environment, we understand that changes to the documentation may be required.

We will ensure that future updates to the Kit content are provided to you annually.  An update charge will apply.

Below is a comprehensive library of all 48 documents provided, including a procedural document to assist you in setup and implementation (00).
