Document background
The Employee Retainer Agreement serves as a formal contract establishing a retained employment relationship under Philippine jurisdiction. This document is particularly useful for professional roles where regular, ongoing services are required but with more flexibility than traditional employment arrangements. The agreement comprehensively covers essential elements required by Philippine labor law, including statutory benefits, working conditions, and employee protections. It's designed to protect both employer and employee interests while ensuring compliance with the Labor Code of the Philippines and related employment legislation. The document is typically used when companies need to secure consistent access to an employee's services while offering more structured terms than casual employment but with potentially more flexibility than full-time arrangements.
