Employee Information Sheet to gather all information for payroll and to protect your business against identity fraud and unwittingly employing illegal workers.

Sickness Form to make sure that there is a written record of sickness absence, letting you know if there are any underlying issues (stress, bad management, etc) that have not been mentioned but which are affecting performance.

Holiday absence form so that you have a paper trail to minimise any discussions at the end of the holiday year about remaining entitlement.
