One wrong word in an employment contract can land an employer in hot water.

The key to minimising risk is being "precise in drafting, while still allowing yourself a lot of flexibility", says Mallesons Stephen Jaques senior associate Emma Goodwin.

In this HR Daily webinar, Emma Goodwin and Mallesons partner Murray Kellock will explain the risks that can arise from employment contracts, and how to avoid them.

Murray and Emma will cover:

• The pros and cons of each type of employment contract;
• Key features of employment contracts and when to include them;
• What not to include in contracts;
• Contract issues arising from the Fair Work Act;
• Clauses that protect employers' interests during - and after - the employment period;
• Special issues arising from executive contracts;
• How to make policies and procedures interact with contracts; and more.

Murray and Emma will answer questions at the end of their 60-minute presentation, and we'll send you a recording of the entire event.
