Common Terms in Nebraska Employment Contracts
An employment contract in Nebraska will typically provide for the following terms: job position description, compensation, duration of employment period (or at-will), and grounds for promotion/termination. Please note, however, that contracts can contain other less common clauses. First, for example, an arbitration clause might require the parties to forgo the right to sue in the event of an employment dispute.
Second, a severance clause or "termination clause" outlines the process for ending the employment. Courts have held employers liable for wrongful termination when violating such clauses. Third, confidentiality and non-compete clauses make all information obtained or work completed by an employee under contract subject to certain rules.
