Description

An employment contract is an agreement between an employer and employee that sets out the terms and conditions of employment. An employment contract should be clear and easy to understand — and right for you. Because an employment contract is a legal document, many workers ask a lawyer for advice about the terms and conditions in their contract. In this dramatized video case study some of the team are shocked when they receive their latest contracts and learn they are only for a week at a time. Sanjay, the union representative, stresses the importance of reading a contract carefully and being familiar with the terminology before signing anything. They learn negotiation skills when Sam does a practice contract negotiation with Casey who sadly gives in to all his demands.
