An employment contract is a written agreement between an employer and employee that outlines duties, compensation, benefits, work expectations, and termination conditions.
Typical provisions include job description, salary and bonuses, benefits, work hours, leave, confidentiality, IP rights, and termination or resignation terms, along with any dispute resolution steps.
A glossary helps explain common terms used in employment contracts, ensuring everyone understands obligations and rights.
