Loading...The Alabama employment agreement records the terms of participation amongst an employer and incoming employee. The agreement may involve other clauses and sections related to the benefits of the employee (such as health insurance, retirement plans such as 401(k), ownership options, etc.) as well as confidentiality (NDA), non-compete language, and detail the time-off allowed by company policy. Once both parties agree on the terms of employment and sign the contract, employment can begin.
