A Rhode Island employment contract agreement indicates an employer’s operational terms to an individual hired to perform a duty in exchange for payment. Employers are encouraged to draft and implement a contract agreement before commencing the business relationship. In doing so, they confirm that the employee is aware of their salary, working schedule, responsibilities, rights, and other details relating to the position of employment. The contract offers the employer legal protection in the event that an employee disputes the prescribed terms. Likewise, the employee may reference the contract agreement if their rights are violated or if the employer fails to adhere to the conditions.
