In England and Wales, an attachment typically refers to a formal work placement or secondment, common in professional training, education, and public sector roles. The acceptance letter is the written confirmation from the host organisation or the participant that placement terms have been agreed. It records the duration, role, location, any stipend, and the obligations of both parties.

It depends on the nature of the arrangement. If the participant is obliged to attend set hours and performs work for the organisation, they may qualify as a worker under the Employment Rights Act 1996 and National Minimum Wage Act 1998. Genuine volunteers or students on compulsory educational placements have a more limited set of statutory rights.

Only if the participant is a genuine volunteer with no obligation to attend, or is on a compulsory placement forming part of an accredited educational course.

Under the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974, the host must provide a safe workplace and adequate supervision to all people on the premises, including attachment participants.

If the participant qualifies as a worker or employee, the host must follow fair procedures before ending the placement early to avoid legal challenge.

It should confirm the participant's name, the host organisation, start and end dates, role or placement description, working hours, location, any payment or expenses arrangement, supervision arrangements, and confidentiality obligations. Where relevant, it should state the participant's status (volunteer, student, or worker) to manage expectations about statutory rights from the outset.

Yes. NHS attachments and secondments are governed by the NHS Agenda for Change framework for employed participants and specific placement protocols for students or trainees.
