Current legal scenario to include the force majeure clause in contract of employment must examine the recognition and applicability of the clause by the legislature. Can an obligation be imposed on the both parties be just and equitable in that the party relying on the clause will have to give reasonable notice to the other party in event the contract becomes impossible to perform and what would be the compensation allowable to the other party?
