Many employees in NJ sign contracts or employment agreements as a result of their employment. While many employees are “at-will” employees who can be terminated at any time for any or no non-discriminatory or non-retaliatory reason, there are many employees who have contractual rights. These contractual rights may include a promise to employ for a particular term, a promise to pay compensation, bonuses, commissions, travel expenses, stock options, and other benefits. When an employer fails to comply with a contractual promise, the employee may have the right to bring an action for breach of contract. Employment contracts and agreements do not always need to be in writing in order to be enforceable. Some oral promises, coupled with an employee’s detrimental reliance may be enforceable as a breach of oral agreement or a promissory estoppel.

​

Other NJ employees find themselves at the wrong end of contract claim. NJ employers sometimes require employees to sign oppressive contract provisions, such as non-compete clauses, restrictive covenants non-compete agreements, mandatory arbitration agreements mandatory arbitration agreements, non-disclosure agreements, and non-solicitation agreements. All of these agreements can be enforceable under certain circumstances. Similarly, severance agreements and releases that an employer asks an employee to sign may unwitting waive important legal rights.
