Document background
The Job Offer Agreement is a crucial document used in Pakistan when formalizing an employment relationship between an organization and a potential employee. It serves as the primary contract that outlines the terms and conditions of employment, ensuring compliance with Pakistani labor laws including the Industrial and Commercial Employment Ordinance, Minimum Wages Ordinance, and other relevant legislation. This document should be prepared after initial hiring discussions and before the employee's start date, typically following verbal agreement on key terms. It includes essential information about the position, compensation, benefits, working conditions, and obligations of both parties. The agreement is particularly important as it provides legal protection for both employer and employee while establishing clear expectations and requirements for the employment relationship under Pakistani jurisdiction.
