Document background
This Employer And Employee Agreement is essential for establishing formal employment relationships in Belgium. It serves as the primary legal document defining the terms and conditions of employment, ensuring compliance with Belgian labor laws, social security regulations, and relevant EU directives. The agreement should be used when hiring any new employee in Belgium, whether for permanent or fixed-term positions, and must be provided to the employee before or at the start of employment. It includes crucial information about working conditions, remuneration, benefits, notice periods, and other mandatory provisions required under Belgian law. The document also addresses modern workplace considerations such as data protection under GDPR and remote working arrangements where applicable. This agreement forms the foundation of the employment relationship and serves as a reference point for both parties throughout the duration of employment.
