Transitioning from Contract to Full-Time: Is It a Continuation or a New Start?

Inquiry Regarding Transition from Contractual to Full-Time Employment

I am seeking advice on the scenario where a contractual employee transitions into a full-time position within the organization's system. Would this transition be considered a continuation of employment or a fresh appointment?

From the date of joining the company's payroll, the employee was initially employed on a contract basis. Once the contract expired, the individual was then hired as a new employee on the company's permanent payroll. In the case of a Trainee, the training period is taken into consideration before being appointed on a probationary basis.

If by contractual employment, you mean employment for a fixed term, then by regularization, his date of joining will be the date on which he started his employment under the fixed-term contract and not the date of his regularization.

On the other hand, if you mean an employee under a contractor and later absorbed as your employee, then the employee-employer relationship is said to have started on the date on which he became your employee, that is the date of his absorption into your payroll.
