What is sessionals?

Sessionals are employees who work on a contractual basis and are hired for a limited period to fulfill certain requirements of an organization. They are usually hired as temporary or part-time employees to provide additional support during peak business times or for specific projects.

Sessionals are not regular employees and do not receive the same benefits and job security as full-time employees. They are often paid on an hourly or daily basis and do not receive any benefits such as healthcare, retirement benefits, or paid time off.

Sessionals are hired for a specific job or project, and their employment typically lasts for a fixed duration. Once their contract is over, they may or may not get another contract with the organization.

Some common examples of sessionals include seasonal workers, part-time workers, freelance professionals, and project-based consultants. Sessionals are typically used by organizations to meet their temporary staffing needs, without incurring the long-term cost of hiring full-time employees.
