The Service Occupancy Agreement is essential for organizations in Nigeria that provide residential accommodation as part of employment packages. This document type is commonly used in sectors where on-site or nearby employee housing is crucial for job performance or is offered as an employment benefit. The agreement clearly establishes that the right to occupy the property is conditional upon continued employment, distinguishing it from standard residential tenancy agreements under Nigerian law. It includes comprehensive terms covering property maintenance, utility charges, access rights, and vacation procedures upon employment termination. The document ensures compliance with both Nigerian employment and property laws while providing clear guidelines for both parties regarding their rights and obligations in this unique arrangement.
