Frequently asked questions

Can I use this agreement for seasonal employees?

Yes, the template includes an option for seasonal employment with a defined end date. It also addresses the unique scheduling and attendance expectations for peak-season staff.

Does this agreement make the employee exempt from overtime?

No. The template assumes the employee is non-exempt and eligible for overtime under federal and state law. You should consult a labor attorney if you believe a position qualifies for an exemption.

Is a non-compete clause included?

No. Non-compete clauses are not included by default due to varying state enforceability. If you need one, you can request it separately, but we recommend legal review.
