I DON’T HAVE AN EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT
EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT
Without a doubt the Employment Contract is one of the most important documents in the employer and employee relationship.
I DON’T HAVE AN EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT
If you are an employee and you don’t have an employment contract this can pose serious problems. Not only can issues arise with day to day events such as your duties and responsibilities. There is no documentation for when you started and ended. It’s important that your employer provide you with an employment contract.
I DON’T USE EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS FOR MY EMPLOYEES
If you are an employer and do not use an employment contract you are placing yourself and your business at serious risk. A properly drafted employment contract can avoid many common misunderstandings. It also provides for documentation.
Finally, in the event of a legal dispute courts will frown upon an employer who does not have an employment contract.
I USE AN EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT BUT ITS NOT UP TO DATE
Some employers will presume they have complied with their due diligence by simply having an employment contract. This is not enough. Each contract must be tailored for the specific employee. You should also ensure you as the employer are also complying with your own contract. For example, if the employment contract suggests annual reviews but you have failed to conduct them this can be a problem.
You should review your contracts yearly with an employment lawyer and also with your employees.
