An employment contract is a legally binding agreement between an employer and an employee that sets out the terms and conditions of employment, including job duties, compensation, benefits, and the circumstances under which employment may be terminated.

Employment contracts are used when hiring full-time or part-time employees. They are particularly important for senior roles, specialized positions, or when specific terms (such as non-compete clauses or bonuses) need to be documented.
