The Temporary To Permanent Employment Request Letter is a crucial document in Irish employment practice, typically used when a fixed-term or temporary employee wishes to formally request conversion to permanent status. This document becomes relevant when an employee has demonstrated value to the organization during their temporary engagement, or when approaching the end of their fixed-term contract. It must comply with Irish employment law, particularly the Protection of Employees (Fixed-Term Work) Act 2003, which provides rights and protections for fixed-term workers. The letter serves as an official record of the request and typically includes details about the employee's current role, contributions, and justification for permanent status. It's particularly important in contexts where organizations have established pathways for temporary-to-permanent transitions or where employees have rights under Irish law regarding successive fixed-term contracts.
