Can my employer unilaterally make changes or variations to my employment contract? The employment contract is a legally enforceable agreement between the employee and the employer and is at the heart of the employment relationship.

Changes can also come about as a result of collective agreements with Trade Unions and changes being incorporated into the contract. A pay increase is an example of such a change.
