Employment Act UK. The contract of employment is the contract between the employer
and employee and contains the stipulated terms and conditions of the employment. The

the obligation and terms should be in implied way or done orally.

the store management((Fahy and et.al., 2019)). The store manager did not clearly specify
the work and not provided necessary training. It was also observed that Albert was not
provided salary at the right time which is his right to receive on time and also seen that
the other employees was working beyond the working hours and was not given leaves by
the management. It is right of the every employee to receive salary at right time and if
any worker is working beyond their working hours should be paid apart from its salary.
Under the contract of employment, the workers are also entitles of leave and sick leave

employer breaches any terms of the contract of employment then the employee has right
to take legal action against the management of the company.
