FAQ
A signed offer letter can be legally binding to an extent, but it depends on the content and how it's presented. If it clearly outlines the key terms of employment, it may create a binding agreement. However, it's generally not as binding as a formal employment contract.
Once you agree to the terms in an offer letter by signing it, it becomes binding and official. Your signature shows you're on board with what the employer is offering. It's a simple way of saying both sides are clear on what's being offered and agreed upon.
Contract or signed agreement: Many employees get a signed contract, employment agreement or offer letter before they start a new job. You can use either document to prove employment and income.
In Ohio, for a contract to be legally enforceable, certain elements—like a valid offer, acceptance, and a meeting of the minds—must be present within the document or verbal agreement. These elements help ensure the enforceability of the contract and confirm the agreement is valid and binding under the law.
An employment contract is similar to an offer letter. An employment contract is a signed agreement between an employee and employer or labor union. It establishes the rights and responsibilities of both parties. Where an offer letter can be vague about future statements, an employee contract puts them front and center.
A conditional offer of employment should be written like a traditional job offer, with a full description of the job responsibilities, salary, etc. However, it also lays out conditions that must be met in order for the employee to start work.
Additionally, independent contractor agreements frequently have notice provisions under which a certain number of days or weeks notice must be given by the terminating party to legally terminate the agreement. These provisions should be strictly followed.
An offer letter becomes a contract when signed, unless explicitly stated otherwise in the letter. However, they probably won't try to enforce the contract.
Although not required in the U.S., providing a candidate a written job offer is considered a good practice. Following up a verbal offer with a written offer will not only set expectations for the new employee, but also clarify any matters that were discussed during the interview phase.
