Kinds of employment 
The minimum working age in Cyprus is 15.

Cyprus does not have a uniform contract of employment system. Where the terms of employment at an organisation or in a sector are not governed by collective agreements, you can conclude a contract of employment of fixed or indeterminate duration with the employer. 

The contract of indeterminate determination is the most common. Your employer must inform you about the place of work, the registered address of the organisation, your job and duties, the date of the commencement and, if agreed, of the termination of your employment, holidays with pay, earnings and allowances and working hours and days, as well about any work that you will undertake abroad. 

There is seasonal work in sectors such as tourism and agriculture. Part-time employment is used by a few organisations, but is not very widespread.

Temporary employment is uncommon, and no agencies provide a temporary employee service to companies.
