Provisions in an Employment Agreement
An employment agreement is a crucial part of your business. While you may think they can limit your freedoms as an employer to control your workers, employment agreements can actually protect your business by defining the roles and expectations you have for each employee.
- Employment agreements define many parts of a job, including:
- Term of employment (if temporary)
- Compensation
- Sick days and other time off
- Production expectations
- Benefits
- Raises
- Expected hours
- Company rules
Most importantly, an employment agreement can create rules for your employees, protecting your rights to terminate the relationship if they are found in breach of their contract. This can also protect your business from a damaging and costly lawsuit.
Be sure your agreement will stand up to scrutiny; contact Brickley Law for help if you’re located in New Canaan, Darien, Norwalk, and Wilton.
