What is the purpose of an employee contract?
The purpose of an employment contract is to ensure that both you and your employer have a clear understanding of what is expected during the term of employment. This document can also serve to eliminate any disputes which may arise at a later date. It also helps you to understand what your rights are under the law. Both the employer and employee are bound to the employment contract until such time that it ends due to notice given or a change in terms by either party.
When Should an Employment Contract Be Used?
An employment contract can be used when terms for part-time, fixed employment or permanent full-time are needed. It can also be used when you’ve been hired by a human resources manager, recruitment officer or an employer.
