Väliaikaispesti

Väliaikaispesti, often translated as temporary assignment or interim position, refers to a work arrangement where an individual is hired for a specific, limited duration. This type of employment is typically used to fill a gap in staffing, such as during a leave of absence, a period of high workload, or while a permanent position is being recruited for. Väliaikaispesti can be offered by both public and private sector organizations.

The nature of a väliaikaispesti can vary. It might involve a full-time or part-time role, and the contract duration can range from a few weeks to several months or even a year. The responsibilities assigned to a person in a väliaikaispesti are usually well-defined and align with the needs of the organization during that specific period. While the position is temporary, the individual is still expected to perform their duties to a professional standard.

For employees, a väliaikaispesti can offer valuable work experience, a chance to explore different industries or roles, and flexibility. It can serve as a stepping stone to more permanent employment. For employers, it provides a cost-effective and flexible solution to manage fluctuating staffing needs without the long-term commitment of a permanent hire. The terms and conditions of a väliaikaispesti are typically outlined in a fixed-term employment contract.
