Cap. 452 чл. 34Fixed-term contracts.
PART V
(1) Saving as otherwise prescribed by this Act, the conditions of employment in a fixed term contract shall not be less favourable than those which would have been applicable had the same contract of employment at the same place of work been for an indefinite time, unless different treatment is justified on objective grounds:
Provided that this article shall not apply to contracts of employees on initial vocational training and, or, on apprenticeship schemes.
(2) Any employee on a fixed term contract of service whose contract has expired and is retained by his employer shall be deemed to be retained on an indefinite period contract if the said employee is not given a new contract of service within the first twelve working days following the expiry of the previous contract.
(3) The Minister may, after consultation with the Board, make regulations to -
(a) give better effect to the principle of non-discrimination between employees on fixed-term contracts and employees on indefinite contracts;
(b) establish the circumstances when, for objective reasons, conditions in fixed term contracts may be different from conditions in indefinite contracts;
(c) generally to regulate any matter relating to fixed-term contracts.
