An employment contract is the fundamental document that governs the relationship between employer and employee.

Whether you are looking to start a new job and would like some advice on the proposed contractual terms or have a question about your existing contract and/or any proposed amendments from your employer to this, our team can assist.

Employment contracts contain the key terms that have been agreed between the parties such as salary, place of work and holiday entitlement. It is however the more long-lasting terms such as any confidentiality obligations or post-termination restrictions (see Restrictive Covenants section below) that may survive the end of the employment relationship and can therefore have the greatest effect.

If your employer is proposing to amend your contractual terms, our team can advise you on the process that they should be taking and your options for next steps.
