I have a written employment contract which is renewal on a yearly basis. I believe I also meet the criteria or test tomb considered as a full time permanent employee. which status has priority, my contract status or my full time permanent employee status ?

Hi Gordon. Thank you for your email. How you and the company classify your working relationship is not determinative of the issue - a court will look at the context of your employment as a whole. Depending on a number of factors (including the wording of the contract, your length of service, the character/nature of your employment relationship with the company, etc.), it seems likely that you would be classified as a full-time permanent employee.
