You have a " TEMPORARY" F/T contract and that is the nuts and bolts of your contract. As "1cook 282" states after a perios of 2 years your contract can no longer remain temporary. This duty that you are currently on will have to be advertsied eventually when the vacant duties in your office reaches 5% or duty has been vacant for a 6 month period then will be open to others in senioity order.janish wrote:I’ve just received my variation of contract it says temporary full time move from part time.

The job was advertised though. I mean the job was advertised on board as temporary job . I applied and I got the job obviously based on seniority . Now if I were to stay on this job for 2 years will it become permanently mine ?

With all due respect you got the job because others would not want to apply for a duty that is temporary and can be withdrawn at the whim of manager.janish wrote:The job was advertised though.

In theory if you were to remain on the content of this duty for a period of 2 years then there is every chance the duty could become permanaently yours unless contributors to this site give a different opinion.
