Employment contracts in Warwick, Rhode Island are legally binding and consist of an agreement between employer and employee regarding stated work conditions. In Rhode Island, many employment contracts are negotiable to enable both parties to arrive at an unique agreement suitable for the circumstances. The employment contract setting a term helps give employees a guarantee of job stability upon meeting the conditions, and it also lets employees have some direct control over the productivity of employees.

Common Terms in Rhode Island Employment Contracts

Terms that are included in the majority of employment contracts in Rhode Island include the job description, salary or wages, length of employment (or if it at will) and grounds for termination or advancement. Contracts might also contain less commonly used clauses. First, arbitration clauses require parties to give up their rights to sue in court for any type of employment dispute.

Also, the contract can contain a termination clause, also known as a "severance clause".

Furthermore, non-compete clauses and confidentiality clauses make the information or work obtained or completed by contract employees subject to specific rules.
