can an employer require contract negotiations to be done at an unreasonable time?
538027
Yes, of course they can, and the employee(s) can easily refuse and demand that the negotiations be held at an equitable time for all parties.

Being a contractor, my position is that the extras asked for are a Change in the Work, thus additional time and money is warranted.\n\nIt is difficult to determine what the proper course of action is due to the lack of details.

If it is in the contract (that was negotiated by company and union) yes they can. Also most "right to work" states allow it. There are hardly any states any more that limits how much an employer can make you work. My husband worked 7 days a week 12 hours a day from 1985 through 2003. He works for a major atuo maufacture.

A great deal depends on the importantance of the general cotractor's policy and whether or not it represents a material change to the subcontract.  Unless there was a specific provision or agreement incorporating the general contractor's policies into the subcontract, then the subcontract would normally have precedence over the policy.\n\nOn the other hand, the policy might be trivial and thus the subcontractor might consent to an amendment.  Suppose for example that the general cotractor's policies required subcontractor payment applications to be submitted by the 25th of the month in order to be included in the general contractor's monthly billing statement.  And further suppose theh subcontract said the payment applications were due by the 26th.  That's not a huge difference and the subcontractor would probably agree to a change.\n\nOther contractor provisions, such as the allowable markup for profit on change orders might be very important and thus require negotiations before the subcontractor would agree to a change.

If you've signed a contract, then you are legally obligated to take the job offer.  The only exception would be whether or not your state has a "cooling off" period for contracts, where you can get out of anything you've signed in the first few days after you sign it.  A better policy after getting a job offer is telling the company that you'd like to think about it overnight, and then contact your original employer to tell them you have an offer, thus allowing them to counter before anything permanent is done.

not until they agree on and sign a contract.

If you have a contractual agreement, you should be able to confirm what they can and can't do. \n\nIf not, walk away.

The contract is allowed because of the training given to the employee.  Thus, it can bind the employee for a number of years which is the cost of the training.  If you really wanted to question the contract, you can file a complaint with the Department of Labor.  Further, if you realy do not want the contract, do not sign it and look for other companies that will suit your plans.

it depends on the contract

You can hand your notice in at any time, regardless of any contract you may or may not have signed. You only need to ensure that you give the required period of notice, usually a week.

That is completely dependant on the project or the designer's asking rate.  Most of the time it's negotiable.

Not sure of your question but a valid contract has to have an offer, acceptance and consideration.  If you are asking for the type of contracts there are unilaterial contracts, bilateral contracts, requirement and out put contracts, land sale contracts, merchants contracts etc.

The answer is No!. The contract can only be binding when it is exchanged. If you are having doubts and no longer prepared to purchase the property. Instruct your solicitors immediately not to exchange. You might however still neet to meet part of your solicitors cost for the work he/she might have done so far.

Just about and contract can be legally binding.  IN the contract, it must state the names of the parties involved, what they are aggreeing to do, and the terms upon which the contract can be void.  Also, if you want to get serious about it, you could have it notorized.

Yes. you are being ripped off! you can contact the higher authorities at your work, meaning the ones above your manager. if they dont sort this out, you might want to contact the department of Labor and lodge a complaint with them with a copy of your agreement. also you might want to seek the advice of an attorney after showing him a copy of your contract and you can proceed according to his advice.
