In the third part of master’s thesis is analysing peculiarities of performance of fixed-term employment contracts. Employer has no right to discriminate workers on a basis that they are employed by fixed-term employment contracts. Employer has a duty to inform fixed-term workers about free workplaces of regular work too. It should be noted that Labour Code allows the parties of employment contract to extend the term of fixed-term contract.
