How the people workstream is framed
Employment and consultancy documentation should reflect the real relationship, information access, IP position, compensation / equity structure and the way the relationship may change or end.
Key starting points
- Role, relationship, compensation and proposed term
- Existing offer / employment / consultancy paper
- Confidentiality, IP, equity and exit position
Documents commonly in the workstream
Employment and consultancy agreements, offer / appointment documentation, confidentiality and IP provisions, separation documents, ESOP / employee-equity documentation and selected workplace policies.
Where the analysis concentrates
Role and status; confidentiality and IP; compensation and equity; duties and restrictions; data access; notice / separation mechanics; and consistency with the company’s broader governance and ESOP structure.
