Legislative changes related to the content of the written employment contract

On July 1, 2024, a legislative change that establishes new requirements for the content of employment contracts will come into effect. This amendment expands the list of information that must be included in employment contracts entered into after July 1. Additionally, employees will be able to request that existing employment contracts be updated or supplemented. Therefore, the legislative change means that employers must update their templates for employment contracts and prepare for existing contracts to be updated or supplemented.
