Most employment contracts in Washington are negotiable because both parties often find it beneficial to arrive on an unique agreement that best suits the 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 Washington Employment Contracts

An employment contract in Washington will usually provide for the following terms: job position description, compensation, duration of employment period (or at-will), and grounds for promotion/termination.

Furthermore, termination or severance clauses detail the procedure for ending employment.
