Does your non-profit know the value of using written employment contracts for risk management purposes?
Risk management means anticipating and planning for something unexpected that might happen in the future. For example, a critical risk management issue is the payout of overtime hours outside of the budget for salaries/wages.
Does your non-profit know what should go into an employment contract?
Employment contracts typically detail the job duties, expected hours of work, whether overtime is allowed, wages/salary, benefits, applicable workplace policies, vacation and vacation pay, term (length of contract), and termination (how the contract ends).
Do your non-profit’s written employment contracts follow the applicable employment law?
The applicable law depends on “jurisdiction”. For the Yukon, this is usually the Employment Standards Act and Human Rights Act.
Does your non-profit use written employment contracts for its workers?
An employment contract is a legal document that contains all the information relating to the expectations of the employer. This information typically includes a description of the position and responsibilities, rate of pay, and hours of work.
