EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT
Changes in positions, responsibilities or terms of employment are common within organizations. Documenting these changes is crucial. Adding an addendum to the employment contract provides the ideal solution here.
An addendum is a supplement to the existing employment contract. It contains agreements that are different from, or additional to, the original agreement. Consider changes in salary, working hours, workplace or responsibilities. Instead of drafting an entirely new agreement, an addendum is often sufficient to record changes.
Changes in position or responsibilities can have a significant impact on the employment relationship. For example, when an employee is promoted or given additional responsibilities, this should be clearly recorded. This prevents uncertainty about the agreements and gives both parties a foothold.
It also has legal advantages. Documenting changes prevents discussions about what was or was not agreed. Should a dispute arise, a properly drafted addendum provides proof of the agreements made.
