The courts have placed the employer-employee relationship within the framework of contract law.

Contract law assumes the parties to a contract are free and equal partners in bargaining - that is, in working out the terms of the contract.

The average employee has little choice about who to work for compared with the employer's ability to engage the employee or to hire someone else who is prepared to work for less pay under less attractive conditions. To help correct this imbalance, certain minimum standards have been set that must be met by employers in any employment relationship.
