Common Terms in Illinois Employment Contracts

Terms that are included in the majority of employment contracts in Illinois include the job description, salary or compensation, length of employment (or if it at will) and grounds for termination or advancement. 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.

Furthermore, 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.
