Hi 

We have one employee in the UAE and they are currently on an open ended employment contract via our company in region.  Given the new regulations we will need to amend their contract to a fixed term.   In our UK company if we have someone on a fixed term contract the clause regarding this is as follows:

Your employer is xxxxxxxxxx  (“Company” or “we”). Your employment is for a fixed term [of xx months/weeks* (*delete as appropriate)] starting on [Insert start date], and ending [insert end date]. The contract term may be extended by mutual agreement. No employment with any other previous employer counts towards your period of continuous employment with the Company.

Would this be ok to use in the amended UAE contract or does anyone have any other suggested wording they think may be more appropriate?

thanks in advance!
