Invitation letter to a performance appraisal
What is it?
An appraisal is a formal process that allows you and a member of staff to assess the staff member’s performance over a period of time eg on a 6 month or 12 month basis. A detailed appraisal has a number of benefits for you and your employees.
Why is it important?
For example, it gives you the opportunity to:
1. review and provide feedback on their performance and set objectives to maximise performance.
2. It also gives the employee the opportunity to comment on their performance, suggest improvements and bring any problems to your attention.
3. It can therefore assist in motivating employees, resolution of problems and the prevention of legal disputes.
Our employment solicitors can provide you with an invitation to attend an appraisal meeting letter tailored to your specific requirements. This letter sets the date for the meeting, who will conduct the meeting and whether the member of staff needs to bring any particular documents or information to the meeting.

Landlord & Tenant problems
Rent commercial property - Commercial notices
What is it?
The Landlord and Tenant Act 1954 (as amended)governs the rights and obligation of landlords and tenants of premises which are occupied for business purposes.
Why is it important?
The commercial lease notices are the forms used to end or renew a commercial tenancy. Assuming that the parties have not contracted out of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954, each party will need to use a specific form. Landlords must use a Section 25 form while tenants must use a Section 26 form. The Section 25 Notice is a form that can be used by a landlord to either:
- end a tenancy with a proposal to start a new tenancy; or
- end a tenancy with reasons for refusing a new tenancy.
The Section 26 Notice is a form that can be used by a tenant to request a new tenancy.
There are strict time limits for serving a Section 25 or 26 notice.
Risks
If the landlord or tenant does not adhere to the time limits, they may end up losing their right to terminate the tenancy or request a new tenancy. It is therefore vital that as a commercial landlord or business tenant you clearly understand the law relating to service of commercial notices.
Please contact our commercial property solicitors if you require advice on your business tenancy or if you are a landlord. Our commercial solicitors are waiting for your call. Tel ; 01234 938098.

Rent arrears
What is it?
One of the most important issues you face as a landlord is ensuring that your commercial tenant pays rent on time. If your tenant fails to pay the rent and other sums due under a lease, there are several remedies you have which will enable you get the breach remedied and recover payment but you need to decide the best course of action taking into account your circumstances, your commercial tenant’s circumstances, current market conditions and any future plans you may have for the property. Depending on your long-term objectives, you will need to consider the action to take and how to protect your position.
Your options are (1) negotiating payment in instalments (2) forfeiture (3) drawing down on the rent deposit if there is a provision to that effect in the rent deposit deed (4) pursue a guarantor (4) pursue a former tenant under an Authorised Guarantee Agreement (AGA); (5) serve a Statutory demand followed by insolvency and winding-up (6) use the Commercial Rent Arrears recovery (CRAR) procedure – this involves instructing an enforcement agent to take control of a tenant's goods and sell them on to recover the debt. This procedure is complex -various notices need to be served on the tenant throughout the process. Certain conditions also need to be satisfied before you can use CRAR and (6) Issue Court proceedings.
If you are a landlord and your commercial tenant has failed to pay its rent, why not speak with one of our specialist commercial property solicitors on 01234 938089.
Dilapidations
What is it?
Dilapidations is a term used when referring to the condition of a commercial property during the term of the tenancy or when the lease ends. It means the same as disrepair and is linked to the commercial tenant’s repairing and decoration obligations in the lease agreement.
Why is it important?
Most commercial leases contain a clause that the tenant will be responsible for dilapidations. The landlord may serve a Schedule of Dilapidations on the tenant at different stages of the tenancy:
A schedule served during the fixed term of a lease is known as an interim schedule. It will specify the disrepair alleged by the landlord and the remedial works which the landlord requires the tenant to undertake.
A schedule served within the last three years of the term is a terminal schedule.
A schedule served at or after the end of a lease term is a final schedule of dilapidations
The difference between an interim schedule and a terminal schedule when compared with a final schedule is that whilst the first two may contain the same alleged breaches of covenant and details of remedial work required as an interim or terminal schedule in this case the tenant will not have an option to carry out the works himself since he no longer occupies the property. The landlord’s remedy is to claim damages to cover the cost of remedial works, AND loss of rent, service charges, rates, professional fees and VAT for any period during which the property is off the lettings market. This may have serious financial implications for business tenants.
Risks
Schedules of Dilapidations are often the cause of disputes between landlords and tenants, the result of which may mean court action . Tenants should ensure that they fully understand these implications and take steps at the start to minimise their liabilities before signing the commercial lease.
For instance, when negotiating a new lease, as an alternative to accepting full liability, the tenant may insist that the repairing liability be restricted to leaving the building in no worse condition than at the start of the lease. Further, the word “repair” in a lease sometimes includes a liability to renew, for example, where a roof was so dilapidated that renewal was the only practical option. To limit any repairing liability the tenant should instruct a Building Surveyor to prepare a Schedule of Condition, recording the state of decoration and any pre-existing items of disrepair.
These precautions as also relevant on assignment where a new tenant takes on the obligations of an existing tenant. Alterations and disrepair must also be considered carefully by a tenant considering assignment of another tenant’s lease. Further, as an alternative to accepting full liability if breaches and alterations are identified before the lease purchase, the tenant may be able to negotiate a reverse premium.
If you have a dilapidations dispute and need information and advice, please contact our expert commercial property lawyers.
Service of Section 146 Notices
What is it?
This is a notice under section 146 of the Law of Property Act 1925 (Section 146 Notice) that warns a tenant who is in breach of covenant (other than the covenant to pay rent) of the landlord’s intention to forfeit the lease on ground of the breach of covenant.
Why is it important?
“Forfeiture” is the right of the landlord to re-enter the commercial property and take back possession of the property if a covenant (other than a covenant to pay rent )has been breached.
For the notice to be valid and binding the notice must specify the breach complained of and if the breach is capable of remedy, require the tenant to remedy it and ask the tenant to pay monetary compensation to the landlord for the breach.
A landlord can only serve such a notice if the lease contains a right to forfeit the lease (i.e. a right of re-entry). The notice must also contain certain prescribed information. If the tenant does not remedy the breach within a reasonable time the landlord can start forfeiture proceedings in the County Court.
A landlord who wants to forfeit the lease must avoid “waiving” the breach of covenant. Waiver occurs where a landlord becomes aware of a breach of the lease but does not take action against the tenant within a reasonable period or acknowledges the continuation of the lease by for example demanding rent or service charges or accepting rent payments from the tenant.
Forfeiture of leases (including possession proceedings)
What is it?
A commercial property lease usually continues until its end date unless you include a clause to end it earlier. As a landlord, you can only end a lease when the tenant fails to pay rent or fails to meet other lease obligations.
Forfeiture occurs when a landlord ends the lease due to the tenant breaching the terms of that lease by being in arrears with rent or by significantly breaching any other covenant.
Before taking action and seeking possession of the property, you should seek legal advice. If you are a tenant and want to avoid forfeiture or seek court relief from forfeiture, you should also seek legal advice. We are highly experienced in this area of law, so please contact our commercial property lawyers.
Subject to the terms of the lease agreement (legal advice should be sought) a commercial lease generally cannot be forfeited by any other breach of the lease except non-payment of the agreed rent. If a different breach of lease has occurred, then the landlord should serve the tenant with a Section 146 notice (Nazish – please connect the words “Section 146 notice” to the other places in the website where we have defined a Section 146 notice) which should state exactly what that breach is and must give the tenant a set period of time to rectify the breach.
Forfeiture Requirements:
For the landlord to exercise his right to forfeit the lease and take possession there must be an express clause in the lease that gives the landlord the right to forfeit, the breach should be a fundamental breach such as not paying rent or other form of very serious breach, the landlord must take the appropriate procedural steps (i.e. Section 146 Notice) and the landlord must not waive the right to forfeit.
If the tenant complies with the notice and remedies the breach within the given time the landlord can no longer proceed with forfeiture but if the tenant continues to commit a breach of the lease the landlord can issue proceedings for forfeiture of the lease in the County Court.
For more information on forfeiture of a commercial lease for non-payment of rent or otherwise or Section 146 Notices please feel free to contact our lease forfeiture specialist solicitors.
Service of section 25 notice and issue of proceedings
What is it?
This is a notice by the landlord under s25 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954. It allows the landlord to start a procedure which will end either in the tenant being granted a new lease or in the tenant vacating. This notice cannot be given before the last year of the lease terms nor after the tenant has served a request for a new tenancy under s26 of the Act. The s25 notice must state the date on which the landlord intends to bring the existing lease to an end.
When can the parties apply to the court?
Either party may apply to the court as soon as the tenant has received the Section 25 form from the landlord. However, it is usual practice for the parties to try to reach an agreement before going to court.
If a Section 25 form is served by the landlord, the last day for either party to apply to court is the date the tenancy will expire as set out in the Section 25 form. Whilst the parties can agree to an extension of this deadline, but they must do so in writing before the expiry of the original deadline. They can also agree to further extensions, provided they do so before the current extension runs out. If the tenant fails to apply to the court in time, the tenant loses the right to renew the tenancy.
Reorganisation & Redundancies
My GP has asked me to self-isolate as my father is exhibiting symptoms of coronavirus. He has not yet been tested. Am I entitled to my pay during my period of self-isolation?
Government guidance provides that from 13 March 2020 an employee who is self-isolating in accordance with the guidance/doctor’s recommendation will be deemed incapable of work and will also be entitled to Statutory Sick Pay (SSP) from Day One (1) as long as the employee satisfies the SSP earnings criteria. The minimum weekly pay to qualify for ss is currently £118 per week. The current SSP weekly rate is £94.50p. You may also be entitled to contractual sick pay from your employer if you have a company sick pay scheme and your employment contract provides for this. This rate is generally higher as it is usually based on an employee’s salary. SSP is payable for up to 28 weeks.
I am well but do not feel like attending work because I am worried about coronavirus. Can I insist on working from home?
What is it?
If you are worried about coronavirus but do not fall into any of the groups that self-isolate you should check the latest guidance from the government and talk to your employer. As you may know the guidance provides that if possible all employees should work from home. If you fall within one of the high-risk groups, have an underlying medical condition or are very concerned about the virus your employer may be able to arrange for you to work from home, or take your standard or unpaid annual leave.
If you have any specific concerns eg an underlying medical condition which may amount to a disability under the Equality Act 2010 your employer may be able to arrange for you to work from home as a reasonable adjustment under the Equality Act 2010. If your employer has considered your request and cannot provide you with homeworking facilities or any other suitable alternatives and you decide not to attend work your employer may be entitled to treat your non-attendance at work as a breach of contract and may withhold your pay.
I am self-employed. A friend has just told me that the Government has now delayed implementation of the new IR35 rules because of the pandemic. Is this true?
Yes it is true. The new off-payroll working rules (IR35) in the private sector were due to be operational on 6 April 2020. However, in view of the pandemic crisis the Government has moved the start date back 12 months. It is therefore likely to come into effect on 6 April 2021.
My employer is complaining that the company can no longer afford to pay staff as a result of the pandemic. It is true that business appears to be drying out. If the pandemic continues can my employer fire me?
Before considering firing an employee as a result of cashflow problems your employer should consider “furloughing” you under the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme (CJRS) and other available methods of avoiding redundancies.
“Furlough” means a temporary leave of absence from work. The CJRS is a temporary scheme set up by the Government to support employers whose operations have been affected by coronavirus. It allows an employer to keep staff on the company’s payroll without them working for a limited period of time. Under this scheme an employer can claim for 80% of a “furloughed” employee’s usual monthly salary costs (up to£2500 per month) plus the employee’s National Insurance contributions and minimum automatic enrolment employer pension contributions on that salary. The details are set out on the government’s website at www.gov.uk.
Other options available to your employer would be a lay-off, redundancy and a termination of your contract if there is a clause in your contract that provides for termination in such circumstances or if you have under two years of employment. These are different from “furloughing” staff as the employee is no longer on the payroll. A lay-off means that an employee is sent home without normal pay for a time period. However, your consent to a lay-off is required unless there is a specific clause in your contract that allows a lay-off. Making you redundant would result in a termination of your employment with your employer. If your employer decides it has no alternative other than to go ahead with redundancies it should fully consult and maintain records to show why it wants to go ahead with firing you despite the availability of the CJRS.
Your employer must have a valid reason for dismissing you. There are procedures that an employer who wishes to make staff must follow. Firing you in breach of the terms in your contract and of the law would be a breach of contract. Employees may agree to a period of lay off as an alternative to the employer making redundancies, however an employer should obtain specific legal advice if it is considering lay-off.
We would suggest that you speak to your employer about placing you on “furlough”. When the furlough scheme has ended your employer can decide whether there is enough work for you and your fellow employees to return. If the work has diminished or ceased then your employer can decide to implement redundancies in accordance with the redundancy procedures .
I was taken on to provide temporary maternity cover. My employer has now dismissed me on the ground that the person for whom I provided maternity cover is returning next week.
The dismissal is fair if your employer made it clear at the start of your placement that the post was temporary.
I want to issue proceedings against my manager. Can you help me?
You may be able to make a claim to an employment tribunal if you have a problem at work that you have not been able to resolve. Before you issue proceedings it is a good idea to speak to your employer and discuss options with your employer about how you can resolve matters.
You can speak to your employer informally or put in a formal grievance if informal discussion does not resolve the matter.
You should also Inform ACAS that you are making a claim.
ACAS will offer you the option of 'early conciliation'. This is a free service. It can help you and your employer resolve the problem before you issue a claim.
You should always consider early conciliation as making a claim to a tribunal and fighting your claim can be expensive, time consuming and difficult for everyone involved.
Time limits/Limitation
A claim to an employment tribunal must generally be made within 3 months less 1 day.
This is known as the 'limitation date'.
For example, if you want to make a claim for unfair dismissal, you have 3 months less 1 day from the date of termination of your employment to make your claim.
If your claim is for equal pay or redundancy pay or equal pay you must make your claim within 6 months.
Fees - How much do I have to pay to make a claim to the Employment Tribunal?
You do not have to pay a fee to make a claim to the Employment Tribunal.
