A contract is not a piece of paper. If you agree by phone to work for an employer, and they agree to pay you for that work, then in law a contract exists. It may be difficult to prove, and a document setting out terms of the agreement in writing is sensible and useful. But don’t assume that if you have no piece of paper, that means you have no contract and no rights.
