Lay-off and short-time working contract clause

Hi,

Can anyone help by sharing/ providing the wording of Layoff and Short Term Working Clause that they have within their contract of employment.

We need to add this to our current contract but we need some guidance on what is the best wording given current circumstances.  We are a tiny company (5 employees) so do not have access to HR Inform, so any help from by CIPD buddies would be very welcome.

Many thanks in advance.
