About this statute

This Order sets out the essential elements that must be included in a written employment contract. A written employment contract must include specific core terms, and it may also include other clauses that are favorable to the parties. If an employee is required to work abroad, the employment contract must state the period abroad, the payment currency, repatriation terms, and where and how the employee’s social security contributions will be paid. Employment contracts must be drafted in a language the employee and employer understand, or in two languages if they do not share one language. This article repeals Ministerial Order nº 05 of 13/07/2010 and any prior provisions that conflict with this Order.
