French term or phrase: cela ne va pas pour autant leur donner un caractère figé, limitatif
• Concernant les fonctions des salariés, il serait intéressant de faire figurer dans les contrats de travail, une clause relative au détail des fonctions exercées par le salarié. ***Cela ne va pas pour autant leur donner un caractère figé, limitatif***, une fiche de fonctions pouvant toujours
être élaborée par l'employeur, sans que le salarié oppose une modification de son contrat s'il est précisé dans le contrat que la liste des fonctions n'est ni limitative, ni exhaustive.


Many thanks for your suggestions ;o)
