Summary:

In many countries, employees are legally entitled to a contract of employment. The contract of employment usually provides a statement of a range of obligations and rights on the part of the employer and the employee. For instance, it will probably say how much the employee is to be paid, what hours they are expected to work, and what duties are required of them. It may also say something about standards of conduct and dress. And it will probably contain some information about disciplinary procedures and notice period. All these things will be clearly and precisely stated. In other words, they will be explicit. In addition to these explicit terms, though, employers and employees tend to have expectations of one another that are not stated clearly and precisely. This case study examines these tacit agreements.
