Employment Contract Law

Employment contract law refers to the legal rules governing the agreements between employers and employees. These contracts outline the terms of employment, such as job duties, pay, benefits, and conditions for termination. They protect the rights of both parties by specifying expectations and responsibilities. If either side breaches the contract, legal action may be taken. Employment contracts can be written or verbal, but written contracts are generally clearer and more enforceable. Understanding these contracts helps ensure that both employers and employees know their rights and obligations in the workplace.
