Document Overview

All employees must have a written employment agreement. A Full Time Employment Agreement (Long Form) allows you to layout clear expectations and responsibilities of your new employee. This is a comprehensive Employment Agreement that is suitable for any full time employee working in any industry or state in Australia. This agreement covers legal provisions such as remuneration, bonus, share scheme, expenses, motor vehicle benefits and many more. 

The Legal Risk Score of a Full Time Employment Agreement (Long Form) Template

Our legal team have marked this document as low risk considering:

  • The document allows the employer to unilaterally change the employee's role, duties, and reporting lines, which could lead to potential instability or unexpected shifts in the employee's career trajectory.
  • The agreement will comply with employment legislation as long as the template is adhered to.
  • The employer has the discretion to review and potentially adjust the employee's remuneration annually based on performance and other factors, which may introduce uncertainty regarding income stability and progression.
