Negotiating your pay and benefits

There are standard employment contracts, but the company might use their own. Use the standard contract to make sure that nothing is forgotten in your individual contract. It can be purchased in any bookshop.

It is common to negotiate the salary or work­ing hours, as well as fringe benefits, depend­ing on the level of the job offer. Remuneration may be per hour, week or month, but it is rarely annual. Holiday pay is according to the statu­tory requirement. If there is a bonus system, it should be mentioned separately.

There is room to negotiate extra benefits, depending on the level of the job. The most common ones are a free telephone, newspa­pers, company car, Internet, etc. Negotiation is either with the head of the company or the HR department.
