Document background
The Executive Offer Letter is a crucial document used in the hiring process for senior management positions in Belgium. It represents the formal extension of an employment offer to executive-level candidates and serves as a preliminary agreement outlining the fundamental terms of employment. This document must comply with Belgian employment law, including specific provisions for executive contracts, regional language requirements, and mandatory employment terms. The Executive Offer Letter typically precedes the formal employment contract and includes essential information about compensation, benefits, responsibilities, and working conditions. It is particularly important in Belgium where employment relationships are heavily regulated and certain terms must be explicitly stated in writing. The document should be drafted with consideration of both the Belgian Corporate Governance Code and specific industry requirements, while also addressing company-specific policies and executive-level benefits.
