Employment Contracts & Reviews

An employment contract is an agreement between an employer and employee that sets out terms and conditions of employment. A contract can be in writing or verbal.

An employment contract can be changed by agreement if both parties agree to the proposed changes. But before agreeing to any change, make sure that you understand what the proposed change is and how it will affect your employment. If possible, you should always record any changes in writing (for example, on your employment contract or in an email or letter).

At Bazaliza Lawyers we can provide you with advice about the terms and conditions of your employment contract and consequent reviews and changes. 

Breach of Employment Contract

If your employer has breached your employment contract, you might want to first try resolving the issue with them directly. It is a good idea to do this in writing or to keep a written record of any verbal discussions. For example, you can write an email or letter to your employer setting out your concerns.

If your employer acknowledges your concerns and you reach an agreement about your employment it is important to record this agreement in writing.

If you cannot reach an agreement with your employer, you might want to consider making a legal claim.
