Free Samples PDF | Word

This is a fixed-term employment contract for employers who wish to employ a person for a stated fixed contract period, rather than giving that person a permanent position.

This sort of contract is ideal for employees hired for a certain task or project. It is particularly useful for employers who wish to have a more flexible workforce or where long-term planning or budgets are uncertain. It can also be used where a person is hired for their specific skills, and where those skills are not required permanently.
