Employment Agreement Webinar

What’s in an Employment Agreement? (Webinar Recap)

On February 27, 2020, Julie Bastian and I presented a complimentary webinar called “What’s in an Employment Agreement?”. For those who couldn’t attend the live webinar, we’re happy to make it available for you to watch at your convenience.

In the webinar, we discuss:

  • Position and Duties
  • Compensation and Benefits
  • Term/Termination
  • Confidentiality and Non-competes
  • Intellectual Property Rights

There is no magic prescription for the perfect employment agreement. Each organization has different structures and operational needs. Your company might not use need employment agreements, or at least not for every employee.

This webinar discusses various common components of employment agreements to help you decide how to use them, if at all, in your business.

Why You Should Watch “What’s in an Employment Agreement?”

It’s seldom an optimal strategy to take an employment contract off the shelf somewhere and use it across your organization. Each provision has potential practical and legal impacts. So you have to carefully think through what your business needs and adjust your agreements accordingly.

There are some basics found in most employment agreements. But even before you get there, you have to decide whether every employee should sign a written contract. In some industries, they’re very common. In others, not so much.

Employment agreements can range from one page to dozens. This webinar will help you match your needs and objectives to what you put on paper and ask employees to sign.

Do you even know what your employees are agreeing to right now? Use this webinar as a checklist to better understand what you can or can’t and should or shouldn’t expect employees to agree to in your situation.
