Document background
The MoU Between Employee And Employer is a fundamental document used in the Indian employment context to establish preliminary employment relationships and set clear expectations between parties. This document is particularly useful when organizations want to quickly formalize an employment relationship while maintaining flexibility for future detailed agreements. It serves as a bridge between an offer letter and a full employment contract, incorporating essential elements required by Indian labor laws while remaining relatively straightforward. The MoU typically includes key terms such as compensation, role description, confidentiality obligations, and basic working conditions, while ensuring compliance with various Indian employment regulations such as the Industrial Employment Act, Minimum Wages Act, and other relevant labor laws. It's commonly used during initial employment stages, internal transfers, or when establishing temporary or project-based employment relationships.
