Definition

The Terms of employment field describes the type of appointment of staff.

Note

Rolling fixed term contracts should be coded as 2, fixed-term contract.

Standard open-ended permanent contracts should be coded 1, permanent.

The fact that a member of staff is on probation is not in itself a reason for coding as temporary rather than permanent.

Holders of "multiple contracts", one of which is permanent should be coded as permanent.

"Term-time only" staff on open ended contracts should be coded as 1, permanent.

Term time only staff should be coded as permanent in field 7 �Terms of employment�; full-time in field 8 �Mode of employment� but FTE in field 11 would be an appropriate fraction e.g. 30/52ths.

It is not currently envisaged that code 9 "Other" will be used, but the code is being retained in case it is required.

This field should show the terms of employment at the return date or date of leaving if earlier.

Example

1    Permanent

2    Fixed term contract

3    Hourly paid/casual staff

9    Other
