When to use this template

The Service Occupancy Agreement for Employee under UK law is a legal template that outlines the terms and conditions of a residential occupancy agreement between an employer and an employee. This agreement is designed specifically for employees who are required to live in a property provided by their employer as part of their employment agreement or as a condition of their job.

The template covers various aspects such as the duration of the occupancy, the rental terms, the obligations of both the employer and employee, and the rights and responsibilities of each party. It includes provisions related to maintenance and repair responsibilities, payment of utility bills, access to the property, termination of the agreement, and potentially, the provisions for eviction.

This agreement template adheres to UK law and takes into consideration the specific regulations and requirements applicable to service occupancies. It ensures that both the employer and employee have a clear understanding of their rights and obligations, thereby preventing any potential disputes or misunderstandings regarding the use and occupation of the provided accommodation.
