Domestic-worker contract template (starter)

Clauses every Lusaka household should discuss before the first day of work.

DRAFT — REVIEW BY LEGAL COUNSEL BEFORE USE. This template is a starting point only.

## Parties and role
Names, NRC details (kept securely), role title, duty list, and work address.

## Pay and hours
Gross monthly pay in Zambian Kwacha, pay date, pay method (direct to the worker),
normal hours, rest day, and overtime handling.

## Leave and termination
Annual leave, sick leave, notice periods and final-pay handling — confirm current
statutory minimums under the Employment Code Act, 2019; do not rely on this template
for the figures.

## Data and privacy
How personal data is stored and who may see it, aligned to the Data Protection Act, 2021.
