[quote=Anonymous]We have one with our PT person.  We have never had to pull it out and say, "remember, we told you blah blah blah,"nor do I think she has ever referred back to it.  But it has helped in that, for example, she started working more hours for us (from 25 on average to 30 on average) so when she takes a day or a week off we now pay for 10 hours (or 30) versus 8.  This was helpful when recently DH and I couldn't remember what to pay her for a vacation week.  And, we actually wrote out the federal holidays for the year so that she has them well in advance.

We also included things like not having anyone smoke around the kids, not taking the kids to someone else's house without our prior knowledge, etc.  None of these have ever come up with her and I can't imagine they would, but just in case, I wanted to have things spelled out.

Even though it may seem weird, I have felt better having a formal agreement.  We don't call it a "contract"and it's not like we plan to sue her if she quits without the specified amount of notice; I think it just helps everyone to have these things spelled out in writing.[/quote]
