Within seven days after dismissal, the employer must file a Notice of Termination with the Employment and Training Board. Failure to do so results in a GIP£750 fine.

Employers must adhere to any contractual responsibilities regarding termination in order to prevent breach of contract charges. To avoid charges of unfair dismissal, a fair process must be followed.

While this is not a legislative necessity, the Employment Tribunal will assess the employer's process. For instance, in cases of misconduct, the method should often contain the following steps: conducting a reasonable investigation, notifying the employee of the allegations made against him or her, conducting a disciplinary hearing, and providing an option to appeal.

The length of service and pay frequency determine the notice period after the first week, as shown below:

Employees who are paid on a monthly basis are entitled to one month's notice. Employees who are paid on a weekly or biweekly basis are entitled to one week's notice.

Employers who are paid on a monthly basis are entitled to a minimum of one month for up to eight years of service, two months for eight to ten years, and three months for ten years or more. Employees paid weekly or fortnightly are entitled to a minimum of one week if they have worked for less than two years, two weeks if they have worked for two to five years, four weeks if they have worked for five to eight years, eight weeks if they have worked for more than ten years, and thirteen weeks if they have worked for more than ten years.

The first week of any employment is a probationary period and can be legally terminated at the end of the week.

Fixed-term employees who are terminated prior to the contract's expiration are entitled to receive 50% of the compensation that would have accrued over the contract's remaining duration.

Since August of 2020, the minimum wage in Gibraltar has been set to £7.25 per hour or £282.75 per week.

The corporate tax rate in Gibraltar is 10 percent and applies to all businesses except those in the energy and utility industry. Businesses in this industry will also pay a 10 percent premium and will therefore incur a rate of 20 percent. This includes suppliers of power, gasoline, telephone service, and water.

Gibraltar has two tax systems: one that is based on gross income and does not offer any allowances, and another that is based on various rates and does. The taxable person has the option of selecting which system to use.

Generally, the income tax rates range from 17 percent to 40 percent but the actual percentage depends on the income bracket the taxable person belongs to.

Gibraltar is a VAT-free jurisdiction.

In the United Kingdom, there is no standard format for employment contracts. The parameters of a British employment contract may be spelled forth in an employee handbook, offer letter, or collective agreement (if one applies to the employment relationship), among other locations, in addition to a written or spoken agreement. In most cases, employment contracts include:

Contracting parties' rights and duties

Working conditions

Employee responsibilities

Regardless of the form of the employment contract, all employers in the United Kingdom are required to give workers with a written statement of particulars that contains a primary statement. The following must be included in the main statement:

The employer's title

The employee's name and work title

A description of the work to be done as well as the place where it will be done

The start and finish dates (if the contract is for a fixed-term)

The duration and terms of the employee's probation period, if one exists.

Salary and payment frequency

Working hours and days (the principal statement must also specify if the employee is expected to work overtime, nights or on Sundays)

Leave, as well as any other benefits to which the employee may be entitled

Whether there is any obligatory training the employee must complete

There is no set length for assignments. This is usually indicated in the employment contract for fixed-term employments.
