Narrow, cause-justified fixed-term contract (ET art. 15) — MUST be in writing with a concrete, specific justification, capped at 6 months (extendable up to 12 by convenio); without a genuine cause it is automatically reclassified as indefinido, and 18 months' cumulative temporary work within any 24-month window triggers automatic indefinido status regardless of cause.

FIXED-TERM CONTRACT FOR PRODUCTION CIRCUMSTANCES (CONTRATO TEMPORAL POR CIRCUNSTANCIAS DE LA PRODUCCIÓN)
Between: Employer name, the "Employer", and: Employee name (DNI/NIE Employee DNI/NIE), the "Employee". Contract date: Contract date.
1. ⚠️ MANDATORY WRITTEN FORM AND JUSTIFYING CAUSE 1.1. Under art. 15 of the Estatuto de los Trabajadores, this contract may ONLY be used for a genuine, occasional and unforeseeable increase in production, or for foreseeable recurring peaks of activity limited to 90 days per calendar year across the whole company. 1.2. Justifying cause (causa habilitante): Justifying cause (causa habilitante) 1.3. ⚠️ Without a concrete, specific cause stated in writing, this contract is FICTITIOUS and is automatically reclassified as an indefinido contract, exposing the Employer to sanctions per worker under the LISOS.
2. POSITION AND TERM 2.1. Position: "Position". 2.2. Term: from Start date to End date. 2.3. Statutory cap: 6 months within any 12-month reference period. Extension allowed by the applicable convenio, if any: Maximum duration allowed by the applicable convenio
3. SALARY 3.1. Gross salary: Gross salary.
4. ⚠️ 18-MONTHS-IN-24 AUTOMATIC CONVERSION 4.1. Cumulative temporary months worked by this Employee for this Employer (or group) in the last 24 months, before this contract: Cumulative temporary months for this employee (last 24 months) 4.2. If cumulative temporary service reaches 18 months within any 24-month window — whether under one or several temporary contracts, in the same or different positions — the relationship is AUTOMATICALLY reclassified as indefinido, regardless of the cause invoked in each individual contract. Track this figure per employee across ALL temporary contracts.

— — — ⚠️ This is a boilerplate template, not legal advice. Spanish employment, consumer-protection and data-protection law (Estatuto de los Trabajadores "ET", the applicable PROVINCIAL convenio colectivo de hostelería/comercio, the sector-wide ALEH VI framework agreement, RGPD/LOPDGDD 3/2018, Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011 "INCO") is highly procedural, includes fixed statutory calendars and changes frequently — statutory figures (SMI, convenio pay tables, LISOS sanction amounts) are re-indexed periodically. Have this document reviewed and adapted by a Spanish employment/legal advisor (abogado laboralista / gestoría) and verified against the current provincial convenio and rates before use. In Catalonia, under the Codi de consum de Catalunya (Ley 22/2010, art. 128-1), documents intended for consumers — price lists, terms of sale, mandatory notices — must be available at least in Catalan; where a Catalan-language version of this document is also used, that version prevails in case of conflict for consumers in Catalonia.
Fields that belong to a switched-off clause are dimmed — they are not asked for.
⚠️ Must be concrete and specific — e.g. "unforeseeable spike in production due to [specific event], from [date] to [date]"; a generic or boilerplate cause is void
Statutory cap: 6 months within a 12-month reference period, extendable up to 12 months if the applicable convenio allows
Confirm whether the convenio extends the 6-month statutory cap up to 12 months
⚠️ If this reaches 18 months within any 24-month window (same or different position, same employer/group), the contract is AUTOMATICALLY reclassified as indefinido
