Is it legal for public institutions to recruit temporary workers for a probation period of half a year?

It is legal for public institutions to recruit temporary workers. If they are prepared to sign labor contracts with fixed term and non-fixed term for more than three years, they need a probation period of half a year.

It is illegal if you are not prepared to sign a labor contract with a fixed term of more than three years and no fixed term.

Article 19 of the Labor Contract Law: If the term of the labor contract is more than three months but less than one year, the probation period shall not exceed one month; If the term of the labor contract is more than one year but less than three years, the probation period shall not exceed two months; The probation period of a labor contract with a fixed term of more than three years or without a fixed term shall not exceed six months.

The same employer and the same worker can only agree on a probation period.

A probation period may not be stipulated in a labor contract whose term is to complete certain tasks or whose term is less than three months.

The probation period is included in the labor contract. If the labor contract only stipulates the probation period, the probation period is not established, and this period is the term of the labor contract.
