The Tribunal da Relação do Porto dismissed the appeal against a labor court judgment regarding a fixed-term employment contract. The appellant argued that the contract was valid based on general legal provisions without detailing specific motivating facts. The court held that such generic arguments are insufficient and that the contract must explicitly state the concrete circumstances justifying its temporary nature.

SUMÁRIO

I - A justificação aposta no contrato de trabalho a termo certo não é de aceitar se apenas é desenvolvida argumentação genérica sobre o trabalho e referindo a disposição legal que obriga a sua fundamentação.

II - O contrato de trabalho a termo certo só é válido se mencionar, concretamente, os factos e circunstâncias que o motivam.
