Employment contracts in Grand Prairie, Texas are legally binding and consist of an agreement between employer and employee regarding specified work conditions. Most Texas employment contracts can be negotiable since both parties benefit from a suitable agreement that is unique to their circumstances. If conditions are met, the employment contract for a set amount of time will provide the employee with a guarantee of job security. It also gives employees some degree of control directly over employee productivity.

Common Terms in Texas Employment Contracts

An employment contract in Texas will usually provide for the following terms: job position description, compensation, duration of employment period (or at-will), and grounds for promotion/termination. However, there are also other, less common, clauses that are worthy of notice. First, an arbitration clause requires parties to forego their rights to access the courts for any employment dispute.

Furthermore, the procedures for ending employment can be stated in a "termination clause". Courts may hold an employer who violates such clauses liable for wrongful termination. Also, clauses covering confidentiality and non-compete clauses subject all information completed or obtained by employees to particular rules.
