When an employment contract is drawn up for a period of no more than five years, such an agreement, in accordance with Art. 58 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation is called a fixed-term employment contract.
Fixed-term employment contract sample at the end of the page.
A fixed-term employment contract is concluded when the employment relationship cannot be established for an indefinite period, taking into account the nature of the work to be performed or the conditions for its implementation.
A fixed-term employment contract may be concluded by agreement of the parties to the employment contract without taking into account the nature of the work to be performed and the conditions for its implementation.
Article 59 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation establishes that a fixed-term employment contract is concluded:
- for the duration of the performance of the duties of an absent employee, whose place of work is retained in accordance with labor legislation and other regulatory legal acts containing labor law norms, a collective agreement, agreements, local regulations, and an employment contract;
- for the duration of temporary (up to two months) work;
- to perform seasonal work, when, due to natural conditions, work can only be carried out during a certain period (season);
- with persons sent to work abroad;
- for carrying out work that goes beyond the normal activities of the employer (reconstruction, installation, commissioning and other work), as well as work related to a deliberately temporary (up to one year) expansion of production or the volume of services provided;
- with persons entering work in organizations created for a predetermined period or to perform a predetermined job;
- with persons hired to perform obviously defined work in cases where its completion cannot be determined by a specific date;
- to perform work directly related to practice, vocational training or additional professional education in the form of an internship;
- in cases of election for a certain period to an elected body or to an elective position for paid work, as well as employment related to the direct support of the activities of members of elected bodies or officials in state authorities and local self-government bodies, in political parties and other public associations;
- with persons sent by employment services to temporary work and public works;
- with citizens sent to perform alternative civil service;
- in other cases provided for by this Code or other federal laws.
Entry into the work book
Instructions for maintaining employee books dated October 10, 2003 No. 69 do not provide for specifics on making entries when concluding a fixed-term work contract. The entry is made in the manner prescribed by clause 3.1 of the Instructions, which does not require entering information that the employee has been hired to perform the duties of a temporarily non-working permanent employee.
Thus, when a job is hired during the absence of the main employee, an entry in the work book is made without indicating the urgency of the employment relationship.
