Document background
This New Employment Contract For Existing Employees is designed for use when an organization needs to update or formalize employment terms with current employees in Canada. It's particularly relevant during corporate restructuring, policy updates, or when transitioning from informal to formal employment arrangements. The document carefully preserves or enhances existing employment terms to avoid constructive dismissal claims while incorporating current legal requirements and best practices. It addresses key areas including compensation, benefits, duties, confidentiality, and termination provisions, ensuring compliance with both federal and provincial employment standards. This template is structured to maintain continuity of employment while providing clear documentation of the updated employment relationship.
