Invite to hearingA invitation to hearing is a notice given by a court or other tribunal to indicate that a hearing will be held to determine whether an individual has committed an offence. The invitation will set out the time, date and location of the hearing, as well as the charges that the individual is facing.
The template typically includes introductory details such as the employer's name, address, and contact information, followed by the employee's name, position, and related employment information. It then provides a concise yet clear notification regarding the disciplinary meeting, explaining the reasons for initiating the process. This may include alleged misconduct, poor performance, violation of company policies, or any other relevant grounds necessitating disciplinary action.
Furthermore, the letter details the date, time, and location of the meeting, ensuring that the employee is aware of the scheduled event and its significance. The letter emphasizes the employee's right to be represented by a colleague or a trade union representative during the meeting, in accordance with UK employment rights.
To maintain transparency and fairness, the template may highlight the employee's entitlement to present their case, provide relevant evidence, and call witnesses to support their defense. It may also specify the consequences that could stem from the disciplinary meeting, such as formal warnings, dismissal, or other appropriate disciplinary actions.
The template concludes with a request for the employee to confirm their attendance by a specified date, typically allowing them to suggest an alternative time or date in case of conflicts. The letter may also suggest preparing any necessary documentation or evidence to facilitate a productive discussion during the meeting.
Overall, this legal template ensures compliance with UK employment law by providing a structured and comprehensive invitation for a disciplinary meeting, aiming to approach such proceedings in a fair, professional, and legally sound manner.

Software Engineer Contract
This Software Engineer contract template is designed for a commercial software engineering organisation (or an individual software engineer) to use when contracting out their skills and services in exchange for payment. This contract sets out the type of software engineering and software-engineering-related services to be completed by the software engineer on behalf of the client, with consideration for expectations around quality and delivery timescales, as well as any mitigating circumstances. This contract allows for payment to be made by the client to the software engineering firm or individual software engineer on a weekly or monthly basis but can easily be edited to account for other payment schedules and could be altered to include bonuses conditional on performance. It can also be fully customised with the details of the two parties and the duration of the contract and can be printed, downloaded and edited freely as part of our mission to open source business legals. This is a template for contractors who fit outside of the UK's off-payroll working rules (IR35).
