Valid contracts require consideration

A valid contract requires both parties to receive consideration - that is some benefit that they receive in exchange for entering into the contract. In the employment law context, this means that an employment contract will not be valid or enforceable if it is entered into after the employee commences employment and does not provide for the employee to receive some benefit that they were not already receiving.
