FAQ

If there is no written record of the terms of the employment, it makes it harder to prove the existence of certain terms if action is taken against the employer. The lack of a contract can also prevent the employment relationship being legally binding between both the employer and the employee.

Nothing in this Agreement shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to terminate your employment at any time, nor confer upon your or any employee any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

Nothing contained in this Agreement will confer upon the Optionee any right to be employed or remain employed by the Company or any Subsidiary, or limit or affect in any manner the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to terminate the employment or adjust the compensation of the Optionee.

Once the applicant has accepted the job, there is a legally binding contract of employment between the employer and the applicant. The law does not require witnesses or a signature to make it valid.

No Legal Record: Without a signed contract or agreement, there is no legal record of the terms and conditions agreed between the parties. This may lead to confusion, misunderstandings, and loss of evidence in case of a legal dispute or litigation.

Written employment contracts are not required. However, many employers use them when hiring for a high-level or professional position. Most written employment contracts will describe the scope and duties of the job in addition to the salary and any other compensation or benefits.

If you did not sign a contract in most cases you would be an at will employee and can be terminated for any reason, however if the employer had a policy regarding what constitutes termination, and requires just cause for termination you would be protected.

New York State is an "Employment-at-Will" state. That means that an Employer may terminate an Employee at any time and for any legal reason or no reason at all.Yes, and the law has already written a will for you in that event. My employer wants me to fill out (goals) paperwork at home, without pay. The NYC anti-discrimination law covers employees, independent contractors, interns, and job applicants. Employment relationships are presumed to be "atwill" in all U.S. states except Montana. Guess what; the employer has virtually ALL the power. The obligation to continue paying wages then lapses but the employment contract remains in force. Thus, working without a contract can leave an employee in limbo.
