1. WHAT ARE THEY?
#Employment Agreements are binding documents signed by an employer & an employee, when the latter comes on board in a new job. The employment agreement spells out the rules, rights and responsibilities for both the employer & the employee. 1/

and includes any special obligations undertaken that are unique in a specific hiring situation and sometimes industry. Its only applicable during the Employment relationship except for the"Restraint of Trade" clause, a sui generis("of its kind) clause. #lenomalegal #lawtwitter

2. TYPES OF EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS:
In the broader sense this would incl subcontractors,etc however for purposes of this thread. We& #39;ll deal w/
- Permanent employment
- Fixed Employment
- Casual employment 1/

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="📍" title="Runde Reißzwecke" aria-label="Emoji: Runde Reißzwecke"> PERMANENT EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS apply to employees who work regular hours and are paid a salary or hourly rate. The contracts are ongoing until terminated by either the employer or employee or until retirement age and may be for full or part time work. 2/ #law #lenomalegal

Employees on these contracts are entitled to the full range of statutory employment rights. 3/

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="📍" title="Runde Reißzwecke" aria-label="Emoji: Runde Reißzwecke">FIXED TERM AGREEMENTS:
They give a set end date, for example 6 months or 1 year. You may want to consider this type of contract if you’re looking to cover maternity leave, staff a big project, or take on interns. 1/
#lenomalegal #lawtwitter #legal #law #employment

Fixedterm employees are protected and have the same rights as permanent employees (including unfair dismissal and redundancy pay after two-years service). You can’t offer them less favourable terms because they’re fixed-term. 2/
#lenomalegal #legal #lawtwitter #Employment

The fixed-term can be extended with agreement, but you can’t usually keep someone on fixed-term contracts for over 3 months.If the employee continues working beyond the end date of the contract, but it’s not formally renewed, there is an ‘implied agreement’ of permanence. 3/ #law

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="📍" title="Runde Reißzwecke" aria-label="Emoji: Runde Reißzwecke"> CASUAL EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS: are great for scenarios where you want an individual to commit to working for you, but you’re not sure how many hours of work you’ll be able to offer them each week and cannot guarantee a regular working pattern. #lenomalegal #legal #casualwork
