Common Terms in California Employment Contracts

California employment contracts usually include many terms such as a description of the job, employment duration (generally at-will employment), compensation/benefits, and grounds for terminating.

These might include: first, an arbitration clause stating that the parties may not sue should a dispute arise regarding the employment

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