Employment agreements

The terms of hiring someone as staff

A contract between an employer and an employee that sets out role, compensation, benefits, termination terms, and obligations like confidentiality and IP assignment. In Canada, an employment agreement operates alongside (and can't remove) minimum protections set by provincial or federal employment standards legislation, so getting the termination and notice provisions right matters.
