Document background
The Work Contract Agreement serves as the primary legal document establishing and governing the employment relationship between organizations and their employees in Hong Kong. It is essential for any new hire or employment relationship modification, ensuring compliance with Hong Kong's Employment Ordinance and related employment legislation. The agreement typically covers fundamental aspects such as position details, compensation, benefits, and termination provisions, while also addressing jurisdiction-specific requirements like Mandatory Provident Fund contributions and statutory leave entitlements. This document is crucial for protecting both employer and employee interests by clearly defining rights, obligations, and expectations within the framework of Hong Kong employment law.
