Technical Skills in Drafting the Fixed Duration and Unfixed Duration Employment Contract and Legal Procedures for Termination and Calculation of Termination Benefits

27 February 2016

Under the Cambodian Labor Law, there are 2 main types of employment contracts: Fixed Duration Contract (FDC) and Unfixed Duration Contract (UDC). Employers need to comply with different procedures when they develop or terminate each type of contract. Following the right procedure is even more important when the employers calculate the termination benefits because the wrong calculation may lead to an unnecessary dispute with the terminated employee.
