Greetings,
Are you intending to understand this from a theoretical standpoint? Or do you need to implement this in your organization?
Figuratively, temporary or contractual staffing is a short-term-based assignment for which talent is hired. This kind of hiring decreases the liability of an organization, as these assignments may not include all the benefits which the organization may offer its full-time employees. More importantly, since these staffings are for a shorter duration, they are primarily outsourced on a vendor payroll. This makes the transition of the talent post-assignment hassle-free for the organization.
Whereas permanent staffing includes full-time employees who are hired for roles likely to work for a much longer duration. These employees are on the payroll of the company, liable to every benefit offered by the company, and generally follow the '58 years slab' for retirement. The legal requirements for these roles need to be clearly understood as many roles are 'Employment-at-will'.
Please study beyond these initial definitions. You will find some documents on this topic in the links attached. Please use the research tab to read more.

Permanent staffing / Temporary staffing / Full time employment / Part time employment all have diffferent meaning. Even in some cases its industry specific also.
From legal point of view the major difference between Permanent staffing and Temporary staffing is... in case of permanent staffing there is no fixed employment period (length of employment) in the employment contract, only age of retirement is mentioned whereas in case of Temproray staffing there is always a specified employment period (length of employment) in the employment contract.
As far as benefits are concerned almost all benefits are applicable for temprorary staffs as permanent staffs.
Earlier most of the labor regulations were directed towards permanent employment, but now stiuation has changed a lot.
================================================== ========
Just want to share.... recently i was going through a document on Labor Regulation and Employment in India's Retail Stores
According to which :
Permanent employees are defined as all paid employees that are contracted for a term of one or more fiscal year and/or have a guaranteed renewal of their employment contract and that work 8 or more hours per day.
Temporary workers are defined as all paid short-term (less than a fiscal year) employees with no guarantee of renewal of employment contract and that work 8 or more hours per day

Dear,
The legal definition is found in Schedule I of [MODEL STANDING ORDERS IN RESPECT OF INDUSTRIAL ESTABLISHMENTS, which provides the following:
Classification of workmen:
(a) Workmen shall be classified as:
(1) permanent,
(2) Probationers,
(3) badlis,
(4) temporary,
(5) casual,
(6) apprentices.
(b) A "permanent workman" is a workman who has been engaged on a permanent basis and includes any person who has satisfactorily completed a probationary period of three months in the same or another occupation in the industrial establishment, including breaks due to sickness, accident, leave, lock-out, strike (not being an illegal strike), or involuntary closure of the establishment.
(c) A "probationer" is a workman who is provisionally employed to fill a permanent vacancy in a post and has not completed three months' service therein. If a permanent employee is employed as a probationer in a new post, he may, at any time during the probationary period of three months, be reverted to his old permanent post.
(d) A "badli" is a workman who is appointed in the post of a permanent workman or probationer who is temporarily absent.

Dear All,
Thank you for your valuable suggestions. In our organization, we hire temporary employees for short durations to complete specific tasks, and they are on our payroll. They enjoy the same benefits as others. Additionally, many employees are outsourced depending on the nature of the job, as we have only executives and above. For any clarifications, we may refer to the Standing Order.

Temporary work and temporary employment
Temporary work or temporary employment (also called odd jobs) refers to an employment situation where the working arrangement is limited to a certain period of time based on the needs of the employing organization. A temporary work agency, temp agency, or temporary staffing firm finds and retains workers.
Temporary or contractual staffing
Temporary or contractual staffing is a short-term based assignment for which a talent is hired. This kind of hiring decreases the liability of an organization, as these assignments may not include all the benefits which the organization may offer its full-time employees. More importantly, since these staffing arrangements are for a shorter duration, they are primarily outsourced on a vendor payroll. This makes the transition of the talent post-assignment hassle-free for the organization.
Permanent staffing
Permanent staffing occurs when a recruitment agency provides a client with a permanent member of staff and charges an introduction fee often based on the annual salary of the position. Organizations keep looking at hiring good leaders as part of their growth strategy. The challenge is to get appropriate alignment of the leader's aspirations with the directions of the organization. To create high-impact solutions to enhance the competitiveness of the organizations, the search has become increasingly specialized and focused. Expertise, network, and market research are brought to clients in identifying suitable leaders for their organization.
Choosing the right hire type
The best way to choose the right hire type, temporary or permanent, is to determine the company’s specific needs. Identify whether the work is project-based with a specified skill set need with long-term or short-term possibilities, or if a full-time, permanent employee is needed where they tend to do their job more effectively knowing they have job security, long-term prospects, and the opportunity to build relationships with other staff. This distinction should help guide our decision to make the best choice for every staffing-related situation.

Fixed Term Employment as Part of Temp Staffing
The Ministry of Labour and Employment (MOE & L), through a notification dated 16 March 2018, introduced the Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Central (Amendment) Rules, 2018. This amendment to the Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Central Rules, 1946, brought about a significant labor reform by allowing fixed-term employment for all sectors.
A fixed-term employee is defined as 'a workman who has been engaged on the basis of a written contract of employment for a fixed period.' It is important to note that:
(a) The hours of work, wages, allowances, and other benefits for a fixed-term employee shall not be less than those of a permanent workman.
(b) A fixed-term employee shall be eligible for all statutory benefits available to a permanent workman, proportionately according to the period of service rendered, even if the period of employment does not extend to the qualifying period of employment required by statute.
