peer agreement (net): +2| määräaikainen työsuhde fixed-term contract Explanation: You can also say fixed-term employment contract (if there is a need to specify it). I feel that although in Finnish it ends with "suhde" (relationship), it does not flow that well if it is directly translated. I also looked it up on the Careers pages of Zurich Financial Services (www.zurich.co.uk/careers) in the UK and it has been done as "Fixed-Term Contract" on there. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr 16 mins (2005-09-21 20:14:00 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Further to above: in your sentence it sounds better if it is translated as "(his) temporary employment contract was not renewed..." My main point is the use of the word "relationship". Reference: http://www.zurich.co.uk/careers/ |
