Document background
The End Of Fixed Term Contract document is essential for Canadian employers when concluding fixed-term employment relationships in accordance with federal and provincial employment standards. It is typically used when a predetermined employment period reaches its natural conclusion, whether for project-based work, seasonal employment, or temporary positions. The document serves multiple purposes: it confirms the end date of employment, outlines final payment arrangements, addresses the return of company property, reminds parties of any continuing obligations, and helps prevent potential misunderstandings or legal disputes. This document must comply with specific provincial employment standards legislation as well as federal laws where applicable, such as in federally regulated industries. It's particularly important in Canadian jurisdictions where written documentation of employment termination is either required or strongly recommended for legal protection.
