An employment contract in Las Vegas, consists of a legally binding agreement between the employer and the employee for conditions specified for the employment relationship. Nevada contracts are typically negotiable since both employer and employee benefit from an agreement that is tailored to their specific work setting. An employment contract for a set term provides the employee with a guarantee of job security if the conditions are met, and it also allows employers some measure of direct control over employee productivity.

Common Terms in Nevada Employment Contracts

The majority of employment contracts in the state of Nevada include the following: salary or wages, job descriptions, duration of employment (if any - most are at will), and termination/advancement grounds. Some clauses are less common but still worthy of being noted. First, the contract might include an arbitration clause which requires that parties forgo going to court over 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. Additionally, clauses covering confidentiality and non-compete clauses subject all information completed or obtained by employees to specific rules.
