püsivatööga

Püsivatööga is an Estonian term that translates to "permanent employment" or "full-time job." It refers to a contract of employment that is not limited by a specific duration. Unlike fixed-term contracts, which have a defined end date, a püsivatööga agreement is intended to be ongoing until either the employer or employee terminates the relationship according to the terms of the contract and relevant labor laws.

In Estonia, the legal framework governing employment relationships, including püsivatööga, is primarily outlined in the Employment Contracts Act. This act specifies the rights and obligations of both employers and employees. For a püsivatööga, this typically involves a probationary period, notice periods for termination, and provisions for vacation leave, sick pay, and other benefits. The absence of a predetermined end date provides a sense of stability for the employee and allows for long-term planning. Employers also benefit from a committed workforce, which can contribute to organizational stability and the development of specific skills. The concept emphasizes a continuous working relationship rather than a temporary or project-based engagement.
