The main aim is then to look into which function the contract has in the gap between employment protection and the common contract law. To be able to answer this question, I have during the process of this essay compared four different employment contracts for CEO and compared them with relevant law. The last thing I have done is to look into case law from the Supreme Court and the Labour Court to find how the law and contracts are beeing applied in real life. (Less)
