About this template
What is this template?
This is a fixed-salary employment-style agency contract for field sales staff. It is not a commission-only independent contractor agreement, as it provides for monthly salary and adherence to company leave rules. It contains specific provisions for daily dearness allowances and travel class reimbursements often found in Indian labor contexts.
When should you use it?
Use this when hiring a dedicated individual to travel and promote products for a salary rather than a purely commission-based distributor. Use a Sales Distribution Agreement instead if the counterparty is a company buying stock for resale.
