You’re looking for people that can add value to your business. Who can help you grow your business. People who believe in what you stand for. And together you want to work on a sustainable future for your business, but also for them.
You’ve found the people that can add value to your business. Now you need to decide on how you are going to work and start your journey together.
For your security, and also that of your future employees, it is a legal requirement that everything you have agreed on, is put down in a contract. A contract that is legally binding. A contract that needs to reflect your business objectives, as well as what you and your future employees are expecting from each other. A document that is of mutual benefit to both parties.
However, most contracts consist of a lot words. A lot of legal words. Words that are not generally understood by all. Still we are expecting our employees to commit to this document, by asking them to sign and agree to all that is said within it.
Not the most ideal set up for a sustainable working relationship. And often the cause of future disputes.
...represents your business, your brand, your working culture - setting the scene right from the start?
...is accessible and easy to understand by all parties involved?
...offers transparency?
...reflects your expectations, but also those of your employee?
...is built on a common goal: entering into a sustainable working relationship, of mutual benefit to both parties - based on trust?
And all of the above irrespective of background, ability, culture and education.
Call us, or send us an email. We’d love to talk with you about creating visual contracts for your business.
Our visual contracts are legally binding documents. Accessible either on-or offline.
We create visual contracts that:
· Are more human-friendly
· Enable people to build confidence in dealing with legal topics
· Empower people to know and understand their employment
terms, including their rights, but also their obligations
· Are accessible to a diverse workforce
And therefore:
· Improve the employee journey right from the start
· Reducing contract-related questions and issues
· Resulting in more sustainable working relationships
· And enhancing your employer brand image at the same time
CSU Cleaning Services is a Dutch facility management company, with over 15,000 employees. A family business promoting sustainable employability. Focusing on safety, health, well-being and personal development. Corporate Social Responsibility is key at CSU.
CSU are keen to build sustainable working relationships with all its employees. With a diverse workforce, it is essential that the CSU employment contract is accessible to all. Therefore, CSU started collaborating with Visual Contracts to co-create a visual employment contract.
Together we followed our unique #LegalDesignThinking process: through prototyping and testing we considered all business, legal and employee needs. Starting with mapping the employee journey, and exploring the business objectives.
Result: a more human-centered visual employment contract, accessible to all its users - from HR and legal to, most importantly, all CSU employees.
