A fixed-term employment contract is concluded between the freelance administration company and the freelance employee to provide a service to a client company.
A fixed-term employment contract is concluded between the freelance administration company and the freelance employee to provide a service to a client company.
The term of an employment contract is fixed precisely when it is entered into. However, it may not include a precise term if the term of the object for which it was concluded is not known. It is then concluded for a minimum term. Its term ends when the purpose for which it was concluded has been fulfilled.
The total duration of the fixed-term contract may not exceed eighteen months, taking into account any renewals under the conditions set out in Article L. 1254-17.
Notwithstanding article L. 1254-12, to enable the temporary employee to prospect for new clients, the end of the contract may be postponed by agreement between the temporary employment agency and the temporary employee for a maximum period of three months.
The employment contract will be drawn up in writing and will state: “fixed-term freelance administration contract”.
The employment contract includes the following clauses and information: 1° Clauses and information relating to the relationship between the temporary employment agency and the temporary employee: a) The expiry date and, where applicable, a renewal clause where the contract has a specific expiry date ; b) The methods for calculating and paying the remuneration, the business contribution allowance, social security and tax charges, management costs and, where applicable, professional expenses;…
The contract is sent to the employee no later than two working days after it is signed.
The fixed-term employment contract may be renewed twice for a fixed term which, added to the term of the initial contract, may not exceed the maximum term provided for in article L. 1254-12, subject to the derogation provided for in article L. 1254-13. The conditions for renewal are stipulated in the contract or are the subject of an amendment submitted to the employee before the term initially provided for.
The provisions of Title IV of Book II of Part One of this Code do not apply, with the exception of Articles L. 1242-10, L. 1242-16, L. 1243-1 to L. 1243-6 and L. 1243-8.
The open-ended employment contract is concluded between the freelance administration company and the freelance employee for the provision of services to one or more client companies.
