In most case it is for a year but can be renewed after the term expires depending on the requirement. In a fixed-term employment, the employee is not on the payroll of the company.

However, such contracts cannot be given for routine jobs. It is usually given out for jobs which are temporary. It cannot be used to replace existing employees, if he or she is on a long leave.

The contract is duly signed by both the parties and is for a specified period of time. In IT companies, sometimes professionals are hired on contractual basis to complete a specific project. They could be absorbed in the company later when the project is completed.
