The public’s focus has turned from celebrity gossip to corporate truth with the goings-on of the nation’s top companies taking the spotlight in newspapers, television and the internet.

Employment Contract

Tags: , ,


An Employment Contract or Agreement is a memorialized writing, signed by employer and employee, laying out the terms and conditions of the employee’s employment. The key terms involved are generally the term (i.e. length) of employment, the scope of the employee’s job duties, the compensation to be received by the employee (including benefits, bonuses, or commission), grounds for termination (and if a severance package will be provided upon termination with or without cause), confidentiality, an exclusivity/non-compete clause, intellectual property rights, and a dispute settlement mechanism.

When signed, the Employment Contract is a legally binding contract giving rights and imposing obligations on both employee and employer in exchange for valuable consideration. An employment contract is subject to the same challenges to enforceability as all other contracts, namely defenses such as fraud, duress, misrepresentation, unconscionability, or ambiguity. Absent a contract defense however, employment agreements are legally valid and binding. In addition, some states read an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing into employment contracts. As such, the parties may not resort to technical or contrived excuses to avoid complying with the terms of the contract.

Decline in Employment Agreements Continues as Economic Crisis Escalates

Tags: , , ,


Between hiring freezes and rampant lay offs, employment agreements are being likened to the holy grail. February 2009 saw the loss of 651,000 more jobs in America; bringing the unemployment rate to a staggering 8.1%.

Farming Corporation Deere & Co. has begun to lay off an additional 325 employees. This is after letting go 200 of its workers the month before. And the Deere & Co. story is one being echoed across the nation.

Rightly so, the few, the proud, the lucky ones to be employed are revising their employment agreements; making sure they provide severance terms and benefits. The Vertex Pharmaceuticals Inc. employment agreement was amended and restated in February 2009. The rare people who are being hired in this economic climate are right to look over their employment agreement for the same clauses.

There are few credible predictions as to when the economy will stabilize.

The employment agreements for many of the companies and corporations amending, and drafting these legal documents can be found at the online legal document resource RealDealDocs.com website.

Non-Competition Agreements aka Non Compete Agreements

Tags: , ,


A Non-Competition Agreement, also known as a covenant not to compete, or non compete agreements, are promises by an employee not to compete with his or her employer for a specified time in a particular place. A Non-Competition Agreement, also known as a non compete agreement, is a separate contract that usually accompanies and is executed simultaneously with an employment agreement.

Non-Compete Agreements are enforceable if the employer proves it has a legitimate business interest to protect by restricting its employees’ right to compete against it, if the restriction on the employee’s right to compete is no greater than that necessary to protect the employer’s business interest, and the covenant is supported by consideration, meaning that the employee received something in exchange for it. They are not enforceable if they do not support a legitimate business interest or if the time and territorial scope of the limitation on competition are overly broad. A legitimate business interest could be the employer’s desire to prevent an employee from taking advantage of “confidential” information acquired as a result of his or her employment, such as client lists, methods of production, or other trade secrets.

Employment Agreement for United Fuel & Energy Corporation

Tags: , , ,


Employment Agreement for Top Fuel and Energy Corporation Released

The online legal document provider, RealDealDocs.com has released a number of Employments Agreements () for the top companies (http://agreements.realdealdocs.com/contracts) in America including many Fortune 500 companies. These are actual legal documents drafted by the nation’s top law firms.

An Employment Agreement is a legal contract between an employer, usually a company in the form of a corporation, general or limited liability partnership, or other business entity, and an individual. The agreement calls for the individual to become an employee of the company and provides certain terms and conditions of employment. The terms of employment, including the rights and obligations of both employer and employee are laid out in each employment contract.

Employment Agreements are not the norm, but are generally beneficial to employees and are usually reserved for more skilled positions and employees with more professional leverage such as special skill or experience. Some legal experts argue formal employment contracts facilitate the granting of discretion to workers by superseding many of the legal defaults that define the relationship between the worker and firm owner.

In 2007, the United Fuel & Energy Corporation Employment Agreement, a Nevada corporation, used an Employment Agreement to set out the responsibilities and benefits for their President and CEO, Charles McArthur. Another Nevada business, the resort and casino Wynn Hotel Employment Agreement, used an Employment Agreement with its Senior Vice President of Administration. Both of these Employment Agreements can be found on the RealDealDocs.com website, in addition to millions of other legal documents drafted by top law firms.
