An Employment Agreement, also referred to as a job contract, is a legally binding document that defines the terms of employment between an employer and an employee. At BizMantra, we help businesses draft detailed and compliant employment agreements that ensure clarity, legal protection, and smooth employer-employee relationships.
Employment Agreements are essential in defining job roles, responsibilities, compensation, and benefits. These agreements are signed by both parties once a job offer is accepted, ensuring mutual understanding and trust from the start.
Purpose of Employment Agreements
