Contract of Employment

Contract of Employment

A Contract of Employment is the actual employment contract document - employee details, remuneration, and the assembled contract text, generated from a Contract Type template and its Contract Section clauses.

A Contract of Employment: employee details, remuneration type and rate, and the Contract Setup / Contract Text / Contract Table tabs

Building one

  • Company and Letterhead - which entity and letterhead the contract is issued under.
  • Employee Details - pulled from the linked Employee, plus the RSA ID/Passport number and address.
  • Remuneration - a Remuneration Type (a Contract Section, e.g. "Hourly with Shift, Safety and Telephone") and the actual rate.
  • Contract Type - the template this contract is built from (Period-based, Project-based, or Indefinite - see Contract & HR Setup Reference), which determines whether it has an expiry at all.
  • Has Expiry - whether this specific contract is fixed-term. Fixed-term contracts feed the weekly Contract Expiry notifications (see Weekly Notifications & Reports) - narrowed to each recipient's own Branch Limits.

Once signed, attach the executed copy under Signed Contract of Employment.
