Force Majeure
We have had a number of requests for a force majeure clause to be included. We have sought advice on this and have had a force majeure clause prepared. We note that force majeure clauses in employment agreements are untested and may be considered unlawful/unenforceable. We would recommend any club look to use this clause seek independent legal advice before doing so.
As always Clubs New Zealand provides these templates to members, however, they are templates and are not ready in their current form to be presented to an employee. Clubs must ensure they review the template in full and make the changes required before presenting the agreement to a prospective employee. We also strongly recommend that clubs seek independent legal advice before using the contracts.
