Document background
The Sales Employment Contract is a specialized employment agreement designed for use in the Canadian business environment, incorporating both standard employment terms and sales-specific provisions. This document should be used when hiring sales professionals in any capacity where commission-based compensation and specific sales territories or accounts are involved. The contract addresses key areas including base salary, commission structures, performance metrics, territory assignments, and client relationship management, while ensuring compliance with Canadian federal and provincial employment standards. It is particularly important for protecting both employer and employee interests in sales relationships, where compensation often includes variable components and where customer relationships and confidential information require specific protections. The document includes necessary provisions for non-competition and non-solicitation, aligned with Canadian enforceability standards, and can be customized for different provinces' specific requirements.
