The respondent's employment contract was a fixed term contract that expired automatically on the agreed date. There was no reasonable expectation of renewal as each contract was for a different position and terms. The Arbitrator erred in holding there was a breach of contract and in awarding compensation. The employer was not required to issue notice or pay salary in lieu of notice upon expiry of the contract.
