Overview

In the case of temporary foreign employees, a Work Permit is assigned to them with an expiry date. In relevance to the employer, this will span from the start of employment up until the document's end date, which is determined by the document expiry date. 

This will not affect the termination date of the employee in any way, therefore a termination date must be set accordingly.
