In order to ensure the proper organization of work during the COVID-19 pandemic, it is possible, in certain sectors and under certain conditions, to conclude successive fixed-term employment contracts.
If the employer and the employee have concluded several successive fixed-term employment contracts, they are deemed to have entered into an employment contract for an indefinite period, subject to the derogations provided for in the Employment Contract Act of 3 July 1978.
The Act of 20 December 2020 provided for an additional derogation to this rule until 31 March 2021.
This derogation is extended until 30 June 2021 by the Act of 2 April 2021.
In practice, successive fixed-term employment contracts may be concluded between the same parties without, however, constituting an employment contract for an indefinite period if the following conditions are met:
Note - Care sector is understood to mean:
The employee has the right to terminate these employment contracts without notice.
Please note! The validity conditions of the fixed-term employment contract have not been changed (mandatory written document drawn up no later than the time at which the employee starts employment, etc.).
