Your written terms
Tick what your contract or statement of terms contains
Do not paste the contract anywhere. Read it and tick. The list is the statutory one from the Terms of Employment (Information) Act 1994 as amended.

The rest (within 1 month)
The checker is a list, not a reading of your contract: it cannot tell whether a term is accurate, fair or enforceable. A checklist replaces the paste-and-ask pattern on purpose, because a model reading a contract would be giving legal advice.
