About this template

What is this template?

This is a specialized employment contract for mobile sales staff that combines fixed salary with specific field duty requirements. It contains specific provisions for daily expense reporting, dearness allowances for diet, and a post-termination geographic non-compete clause. It is not an independent contractor agreement as it subjects the agent to the firm's internal leave rules.

When should you use it?

Use this document when hiring a dedicated individual to travel within a specific territory to sell products on a salaried basis. If the agent is an independent contractor paid solely by commission without fixed salary or internal leave rules, use a Sales Commission Agreement instead.
