REQUIREMENTS FOR A CONTRACT In order for a contract to be valid, there must be an offer, an acceptance of the offer, an exchange between the parties of something of value, and an agreement to the terms.

If you don't have an employment contract when starting a new job, it is important to ask for one as soon as possible. If your employer refuses to provide one or does not respond to your request, then you must document any verbal agreements that were made regarding your job duties or working conditions.
