The importance of Contracts of Employment
- Legally define and formalize the rights and obligations of both parties.
- Outline roles, responsibilities, working hours and expectations.
- Employers are obliged to provide employment contracts on the first day of employment.
- Prevent costly and unnecessary time-consuming disputes.
- Whether permanent, seasonal, temporary, fixed term or subcontracted contracts of employment must be signed.
- They play a critical role in ensuring compliance with South Africa’s extensive labour legislative framework, including statutes such as the Basic Conditions of Employment Act.
