I am currently in a temping role with such things like getting paid weekly, having to give a weeks notice etc
When I started nearly 3 months ago I was told that they would initially give me a 3 month contract and see how things were at the end in regards to extending it etc.
My contract has the end date of "approximately 30th June". There is plenty of work and people have left and some are working their notice so there is no reason to think that I will be out of a job come July (even if I was I could cope while I looked for work) so Im not too worried about that.
This is a big company with lots of temp staff. When I asked my manager about my contract and if it could be renewed he mentioned that another temp staff was told by the agency to carry on with the one we have.
Now Im not sure if I need to push for a proper contract or another one with a new date on it (even if its another 3 months) or one that just states its an ongoing temporary position. What if Im still there by Christmas? I can hardly call December being "approximately 30th June"
Isn't it better for me and my employer to have me working under a proper contract? Or is the contract I currently have enough?
