A contract is an agreement made between two or more parties that state rules and agreements. A contract is a way for employers to state what they require from the workers, what the workers will be paid and all the rights they are given. And for the employees the contract may state code of conduct in case of any breaches made to the contractual terms agreed upon bu the employee. In most cases breaches made by the employer are compensated. Usually the compensation is in form of money and maybe time off work. Breaches of contracts can and are usually taken to court for a higher authority to decide what the further action shall be for the parties depending on the severity of the situation.
