Töövõtulepingubos

Töövõtulepingubos is a term that refers to agreements or contracts for work or services. In Estonian law, a töövõtuleping is a civil law contract where one party, the contractor (töövõtja), undertakes to perform a specific work or deliver a certain result, and the other party, the client (tellija), undertakes to pay for this work or result. This contrasts with an employment contract (tööleping), which is governed by labor law and establishes an employment relationship.

Key characteristics of a töövõtuleping include the focus on the outcome or result of the work rather than the process itself. The contractor typically has more autonomy in how and when the work is performed, as long as the agreed-upon result is achieved within the specified timeframe. The client's primary obligation is payment upon satisfactory completion of the work.

These contracts are commonly used for projects such as construction, repairs, the creation of custom goods, or the provision of specific professional services. Unlike employment, a töövõtuleping does not typically involve the subordinate relationship, regular working hours, or employee benefits associated with a formal employment contract. The legal framework for töövõtulepingud can be found in the Estonian Law of Obligations Act. Understanding the distinction between a töövõtuleping and a tööleping is crucial for both parties to ensure clarity regarding their rights, obligations, and the applicable legal regulations.
