There are many formalities and guidelines that have to be followed before an employee has been appointed. These formalities and rules have to be followed in any industry or firm. Obtaining the employee's assent to the contract regarding employment is a very important rule. A sample employment contract will be given to the employee. This is for the employee to read and understand a lot of basic information concerning the company. By reading through a sample employment contract, the employee should be able to decide if accepting the offer and joining the company will benefit him anyway. He will also get an opportunity as well as some time to read and understand all the emoluments and rules the company has offered.
All details pertaining to the company are included in the sample employment contract. The contract has details regarding the person's position in the company if the offer is accepted by him, the salary payable, where the work place is located, complete details of the pay scale in annual and monthly split ups, the contract period's duration and the value of the contract's period. There will also be details concerning the working hours and schedule, probation period, employment date, facilities the company provides and many other details like these. The candidate will be able to make an approximate estimate by reading this contract. He can then take a well thought decision.
The actual contract of employment will only be framed after the terms and conditions have been agreed upon and mutual discussion has taken place between and employee or the company's representative and the candidate. This will be based upon the details and terms in the contract provided as a sample. Corrections can be made in a sample contract by the candidate after his discussions with the employer and his family. However any alterations and corrections can be done only if a company representative or employer is present.
