Irrespective of whether a local employment contract or an assignment contract is concerned, specific local labour legislation characteristics must be considered when drawing-up employment contracts:
- Job description including position, status on site (department, superior, etc.)
- Weekly working hours
- Public holidays and holiday conditions
- Special allowances and/or reimbursement of expenses claims
- Compensation for extra expenses (such as travel expenses, relocation costs, accommodation, journeys home, coverage of costs for family-related expenses)
- Terms of remuneration (currency)
- Required supplementary insurances and their respective cost coverage
- Possible effects on occupational pension schemes
For assignment contracts, in addition:
- Return conditions as well as bearing of costs in case of early return
- Duration of validity for supplementary contracts
- Occupational status in the company after the return
