Document background
The Employment Appointment Letter is a fundamental document in Belgian employment relationships, serving as formal confirmation of employment terms and conditions. It must be provided to employees before or at the start of employment and comply with strict Belgian labor law requirements. The document needs to be written in the legally required language based on the region of employment (Dutch, French, or German, with specific rules for Brussels). The letter should outline essential employment terms including job title, start date, workplace, working hours, remuneration, and benefits, while referencing applicable collective bargaining agreements and work regulations. An Employment Appointment Letter is crucial for establishing clear expectations and ensuring legal compliance in the Belgian employment context.
