- mnw21cam 5y agoA contract cannot override law. A prime example is the minimum wage laws - it is illegal for an employer to pay less than the minimum wage, and an employee can't sign a contract to make it actually alright after all.
- Jiejeing 5y agoThere are laws, and there are judgements which are the courts interpretation of the laws; a signed contract does not have the power to overturn either. It is the job of HR & Legal depts to make sure a contract is legally viable, not mine, and I happen to know my rights. There are at least 5 illegal clauses in my contract, and I am certainly keeping them close by if I need to go to court against them one day.
