On 20 February 2025, Decree-Law No. 6/2025, known as the ‘Decreto Milleproroghe’, was definitively approved by the Chamber of Deputies, which once again intervenes on fixed-term contracts, in particular on the reasons justifying such temporary employment relationships.
The Decree extends until 31 December 2025 the possibility for private employers to enter into fixed-term contracts exceeding 12 months, and in any case not exceeding 24 months, also for needs of a technical, organisational or productive nature, if not already provided for by collective agreements.
This provision applies to all sectors, with an initial application that could affect the tourism sector, pending updates of the relevant collective agreements.
