The so-called temporary workers should refer to short-term contract workers, part-time contract workers or contract workers whose term is to complete a certain task. The revision of the Labor Contract Law is aimed at labor dispatch workers, who sign contracts with labor dispatch companies, and the labor dispatch companies send them to employers. The labor dispatch worker is not exactly the same as the so-called temporary worker, because he has no labor relationship with the employer and his company is in the labor dispatch company. The so-called temporary workers' labor relations are in their own units, which is different.
A temporary worker as opposed to a regular worker. Temporary workers refer to those who work temporarily in the unit, and temporary workers refer to temporary and seasonal employment whose service period in the unit does not exceed one year. It is also possible to extend the time limit, but only if both parties reach an understanding.
