Section 5 Employment Rights Act 1996

Section 5 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 is about Exclusion from rights to statements. It provides as follows:

(1) Sections 1 to 4 apply to a worker who at any time comes or ceases to come within the exceptions from those sections provided by section 199, and under section 209, as if his employment with his employer terminated or began at that time.

(2) The fact that section 1 is directed by subsection (1) to apply to a worker as if his employment began on his ceasing to come within the exceptions referred to in that subsection does not affect the obligation under section 1(3)(b) to specify the date on which his employment actually began.
