Art. 320 Legge federale del 30 marzo 1911 di complemento del Codice civile svizzero (CO)
CO; Parte seconda: Dei singoli contratti; Titolo decimo: Del contratto di lavoro; Capo primo: Del contratto individuale di lavoro; A. Definizione e formazione; II. Formazione
Art. 320 CO
Salvo disposizione contraria della legge, il contratto individuale di lavoro non richiede per la sua validità forma speciale.
Esso è considerato conchiuso anche quando il datore di lavoro accetta, per un certo tempo, l’esecuzione d’un lavoro, la cui prestazione secondo le circostanze non può attendersi senza salario.
Se il lavoratore, in buona fede, lavora al servizio del datore di lavoro in base ad un contratto che risulti successivamente nullo, ambedue devono adempiere gli obblighi derivanti dal rapporto di lavoro come nel caso di contratto valido, fino a quando l’uno o l’altro mette fine al rapporto per invalidità del contratto.
