Employee leasing is an arrangement between a business and a staffing firm, who supplies workers on a project-specific or temporary basis. These employees work for the client business, but the leasing agency pays their salaries and handles all of the HR administration associated with their employment.
If you want one then you should make a copy at the time of signing if handed a paper copy, or sign two copies so that you each have one. But once the lease is already signed there is no specific law requiring the landlord to give you a copy.
State laws on leases and rental agreements can vary, but a landlord or property management company should provide you with a copy of your signed lease upon request. You should make your request in writing, so you have proof if there is a dispute later.
Chances are good that many of your master lease agreements and schedules are housed in your contract management system. The contract management system should also contain information about any amendments or modifications that have been made to the lease over time.
As a rough rule of thumb, expect to spend on utilities an amount equal to about 20 percent of your monthly rent if you live alone, or about 10 percent of your monthly rent if you live with roommates.
This can include electricity, gas, water, and even internet and cable services. In Ontario, landlords are responsible for providing essential services such as heat, water, and electricity. However, they are not required to provide non-essential services like internet or cable.
Ask the landlord what companies they're contracted with for utilities, ie do they use the city or a private company, what internet companies have lines to the building, ect. The easiest and cheapest thing to do is to ask them what's already hooked up and just use that.
A PEO, or professional employer organization, has a different relationship with client companies. Instead of being a firm that leases employees to their clients, a PEO becomes an employer of record for the client's employees. This is known as a co-employment agreement.
It is possible to draft your own lease agreement, but you are leaving yourself open to issues.
