Document background
The Temporary Job Contract is utilized when establishing fixed-term employment relationships under Irish law. It's particularly relevant for project-based work, seasonal employment, temporary replacements, or situations where there is a specific end date to the employment relationship. The contract ensures compliance with Irish employment legislation, particularly the Protection of Employees (Fixed-Term Work) Act 2003, which guarantees equal treatment between fixed-term and permanent employees. This document includes all statutorily required information such as terms of employment, working conditions, and rights and obligations of both parties, while providing clarity on the temporary nature of the engagement and any conditions for renewal or extension.
