A fixed-term employment contract is concluded between the employee and the employer for a specified period. This happens when there is no possibility of establishing labor relations for an indefinite period due to the specific nature of labor duties or in connection with the conditions in which they will be performed. The basis for termination of a fixed-term contract is the corresponding order.
Instructions
Step 1
If neither you nor your employer demanded termination of the fixed-term contract before the date when it expires and you continue to work in the organization, the contract automatically becomes concluded for an indefinite period. This is indicated by the content of Article 59 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation. In the future, the termination of such an employment agreement will take place according to the general grounds specified in the Labor Code of the Russian Federation for an agreement for an indefinite period.
Step 2
According to article 79 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, when terminating a fixed-term contract due to the expiration of its validity period, the employer must notify you in writing of the date of the planned dismissal at least three calendar days in advance. If this condition is violated, the fixed-term contract is transformed into an unlimited one.
Step 3
If you got a job by concluding a fixed-term contract with the employer for the duration of the duties of an employee of the organization who is absent for certain reasons, your agreement becomes invalid at the time this person leaves for work. Moreover, the head of the organization does not need to warn you about dismissal three days in advance.
Step 4
The same applies to a fixed-term contract, drawn up for the duration of a certain task. It will cease to exist the moment this task is completed by you. At the same time, the management of the organization also has the right not to notify you about the date of termination of the agreement.
Step 5
But the employer is obliged to inform you in advance about the date of termination of a fixed-term employment contract concluded for the duration of seasonal work, which is valid for a certain period (season), namely at least three days in advance.
Step 6
There are special guarantees for pregnant women who are employed on the basis of a fixed-term employment contract. The employer, in the event of the expiration of such an agreement, is obliged to extend it until the end of the employee's pregnancy. To do this, a woman needs to write and send a statement to the head of the organization.
