Overview

This skill generates professionally structured employment contracts, offer letters, and HR policy documents that follow common legal best practices. It helps HR teams and hiring managers produce consistent, compliant templates tailored to role, jurisdiction, and employment type. Use it to standardize onboarding documents and reduce drafting time.

How this skill works

I ask for jurisdiction, employment type (full-time, part-time, contractor), and key terms such as compensation, start date, probation period, benefits, confidentiality, and IP assignment. The skill selects an appropriate template, inserts role-specific clauses, and highlights compliance items and optional provisions for review. It flags items that require licensed legal review and produces a clean, editable document ready for HR or counsel.

When to use it

  • Drafting a new employment contract or offer letter
  • Creating or updating an employee handbook or HR policy
  • Standardizing templates across teams or locations
  • Onboarding new hires with clear, consistent documentation
  • Preparing role-specific agreements that include confidentiality and IP assignments

Best practices

  • Confirm the worker’s jurisdiction and applicable employment classification before drafting
  • Specify compensation, probation, benefits, and termination clauses clearly
  • Include confidentiality, non-solicit (if applicable), and IP assignment provisions where relevant
  • Mark discretionary or jurisdiction-sensitive clauses for legal review
  • Keep templates modular so clauses can be added or removed per role

Example use cases

  • Generate an executive offer letter with equity and severance terms
  • Create a contractor agreement with scoped services and payment milestones
  • Produce an employee handbook section covering leave, remote-work, and code of conduct
  • Standardize offer letters across departments to ensure consistent compensation language
  • Draft an NDA and IP assignment combined with an employment agreement

FAQ

Is this a substitute for legal advice?

No. Templates follow best practices but are not a substitute for jurisdiction-specific legal advice. Have licensed counsel review final documents.

What information do you need to draft a contract?

Provide jurisdiction, employment type, role title, start date, salary/compensation details, benefits summary, probation term (if any), termination notice periods, and any confidentiality or IP requirements.
