Employment contract
A signed agreement that sets the official terms and expectations between an employer and an employee.
"I need hires who know what’s expected, and the company protected if things go wrong."
An employment contract records key terms — role, duties, pay, hours, duration, benefits, confidentiality, and how either party can end the relationship — so both sides have legal clarity.
