Employments
Employment
A Worker can have more than one employment through their time at the company.
Significant changes in classification or location
require a new employment to be started for the worker.
For example, when converting a contractor to an employee, their original employment will end, and a new employment will be created
to reflect their new status as an employee.
Similarly, when an employee moves from one country to another in a way that necessitates a change in their contract
(for example because their local employer will change), a new employment object will be created for them.
In rare cases, a worker may have more than one concurrent employments. This is common in some countries where
the company enters into an employment contact with someone, while also engaging with them as a contractor.
In this situation, while both employments are current, only one will be marked as primary.
Most of the time, a Worker will only have one Employment record, representing their current primary employment.
