Guidance: contract length

Permanent or rolling contracts without a fixed term are considered to be of more than 24 months duration. The focus of this metric is employment that is short term and therefore less stable.

This list should exclude:

  • Short-term contracts that are explicitly to cover maternity leave
  • Part-time teaching staff serving as guest lectures for only a few lectures, and visiting scholars if they retain their employment rights in their original institution.
