The Illinois employment contract is drafted to concretely unify an employer and its employee or contractor. The agreement outlines the hiree’s new position as well as the income (hourly/salary), and possibly also the benefits (PTO, 401k, health insurance, company equity, etc.). The employee may be subject to signing NDA’s or non-compete while under contract. Once agreed upon, the parties will sign and employment will be initiated.
