The Legal Risk Score of a Employment Agreement (Professional Services) Template is Medium
Our legal team have marked this document as medium risk considering:
- The document allows the employer to unilaterally change the nature of the employee's role, duties, and reporting lines, which could lead to unexpected job responsibilities or a shift in career trajectory.
- The document specifies that the employer's policies are binding but clarifies that these policies do not form part of the employment contract, which might lead to confusion or misunderstandings about the enforceability of such policies.
- Professional employees will generally have higher qualifications and more bargaining power, which may make the hiring and onboarding process more complex.
