You don’t need to keep a copy of your employment contract on your desk at all times, but it’s always good to keep a copy handy somewhere in your inbox or on your personal computer. If your employment does end and you consult with our team, we will want to review that agreement to make sure that whatever the company is offering you in your termination package is in line with what is written in the contract.
Also the law may have changed since you signed your last contract with your employer, and those changes could be significant. If you have an outdated contract and the employer has not made any updates, that contract may not limit what you could receive if your employment is terminated. Learn more about that here.
