Fixed-Term Contracts

In Spain, fixed-term contracts must be for a reason permitted by law. Those reasons can include work for a specific project, when there is an excess of work/orders, or for filling a temporarily open position (for example, when someone goes on maternity leave). The maximum length of the contract depends on the reason for it. Fixed-term contracts can generally only be renewed once. Workers are entitled to severance of 12 days of salary per year of service at the end of a fixed-term contract. If the Worker continues working after the end of the fixed term, then the contract is automatically converted to an indefinite agreement.
