Introduction

This statement sets out changes in your terms of employment with HMRC as a result of your acceptance of a new appointment on promotion. This statement complies with our obligations under the Employment Rights Act 1996, and tells you about the changes to your terms and conditions. All other terms and conditions not mentioned below remain unchanged.

Changes in terms and conditions

As a result of taking up a new appointment on promotion, the following of your terms and conditions will change. These changes come into effect on [insert date].

Job title, grade and mobility

A. Your job title and grade are [insert both] and your place of work is: [insert office address].

B. As a civil servant you are required to be mobile within HMRC and across government departments within the parameters of reasonableness. This means that you may be required to work anywhere in the United Kingdom or abroad, or to work away from home for temporary periods. The issue of what is reasonable will relate to your individual circumstances at the time of any proposed changes to your place of work.

Salary

C. Your full-time annual rate of pay on appointment is £[XXXXX]. [insert if LMS due - This role is eligible for a non-pensionable Labour Market Supplement of £XXXXXX. The Labour Market Supplement is specific to the designated post and is paid to the person appointed to the designated role who has the appropriate skills and knowledge. The supplement is paid in 12 monthly instalments with salary to staff in qualifying posts and is subject to tax and National Insurance. It is pro rated for part-time staff. The supplement will be paid for two years and is then subject to a formal review. If you move to a role that is not eligible for the Labour Market Supplement then it will be removed from the date of the transfer.]

[Insert if based in London] Hours of work and patterns of attendance

D. Your hours (gross including five hours of paid meal breaks) are 42 hours per week.

Time off work

E. [Insert if moving on to a 5 days out of 7 working pattern in London] As you are moving on to a 5 days out of 7 working pattern your paid annual leave allowance will now be calculated in hours. Full-time employees in their 1st year of qualifying service have a paid annual leave allowance of 162.8 hours (equivalent to 22 full days). This allowance increases to 185 hours (equivalent to 25 full days) after 1 year’s qualifying service. After 10 year’s qualifying service this allowance increases to 222 hours (equivalent to 30 full days).

F. In addition to your annual leave allowance, you are entitled to paid public and privilege leave of 8 days public and 1 day privilege holiday for the Queen’s birthday. If you work part-time, including part-year, your entitlements are calculated proportionally on a pro-rata basis.

Sickness absence

G. If you have provided the appropriate certificates you will be entitled to sick pay (at full and/or half pay) based on your length of service. The entitlement is shown below.

|Length in Civil Service |Entitlement |

|During 1st year of service |1 month full pay & 1 month half pay |

|During 2nd year of service |2 months’ full pay & 2 months’ half pay |

|During 3rd year of service |3 months’ full pay & 3 months’ half pay |

|During 4th year of service |4 months’ full pay & 4 months’ half pay |

|During 5th and any subsequent year of service |5 months’ full pay & 5 months’ half pay |

H. Sickness absence is paid in accordance with variation G above, up to a maximum of 10 months pay (full and/or half pay) in any rolling period of 4 years. Any Statutory Sick Pay due is included in sick pay paid under this section.
