This article reads like it was written by someone with a heavy anti-employment slant. Instead of describing things objectively, with legal terminology it infers that employment is some sort of relationship of power and servitude, ie. "master-servant", "submission", "subordination", "inequality of bargaining power". This is obviously written from the point of unions and designed to sell unionization by misrepresenting employment.173.33.238.109 (talk) 17:14, 11 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I concur. This article needs a severe revision to be less biased, as I also find it reads with a strong pro-union bias. Arcane21 (talk) 10:35, 27 October 2012 (UTC)Arcane21[reply]

This would be a useful page for employers looking to create employee contracts. I would be interested in talking to others about the web resources currently available to employees and employers along these lines. Our portfolio of client base includes a host of prestigious and globally renowned Fortune 500 companies as well as young dynamic start-ups and fast-growing companies across all verticals. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 118.94.83.129 (talk) 06:55, 22 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I wouldn't even say it is "Pro union", the entire article is written from an anarchist point of view. It definitely needs a re-write RoyalBlueStuey (talk) 15:34, 13 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Edit suggestions

I think it would be helpful to add a section differentiating "at-will"^[1] vs "fixed term"^[2] employment status, either as a new section or expanded under the terminology section. The "structure" section should also elaborate on each item listed and cited with a credible source(s). The "criticism" section should probably be revised into a "pros vs cons" section to lend a more balanced view. The quote by Sir Otto Kahn-Freund can also be removed to make the introduction sound a bit more neutral. Vyeh3 (talk) 03:02, 26 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
