A North Carolina employment contract agreement is a document that an employer may draft in order to specify the terms and conditions under which a new employee must operate. In addition to describing the amount and frequency of payment, the form also describes any benefits that the employee will be entitled to as a part of their agreement. This contract may be used to cover both long-term and short-term employment. It may also be used to hire someone for a supervisory position with the power to hire additional employees. Furthermore, there are multiple clauses that the employer can include to prevent certain liabilities from occurring, such as non-disclosure and non-compete clauses which prevent the employee from acting in direct competition with their business.
