Shoreline, employment contracts between an employer and employee legally bind them to certain conditions in their work relationship. Many employment contracts in Washington are negotiable because both parties frequently find it beneficial to arrive on an unique agreement that best suits 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 Washington Employment Contracts

The majority of employment contracts in the state of Washington include the following: salary or wages, job descriptions, length of employment (if any - most are at will), and termination/advancement grounds. 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, termination or severance clauses detail the procedure for ending employment. Courts have held that when an employer violates these in firing an employee, the employee may sue for wrongful termination. Furthermore, clauses covering confidentiality and non-compete clauses subject all information completed or obtained by employees to particular rules.
