If a person is hired for a short-term contract (up to 3 months), and then the contract is not renewed, several social benefits don't apply. So guess what - new people are hired every 2-3 months. So, for instance, when the person who learned to operate the computer system that keeps the shop running is just about starting to learn the basic functions, a new person comes in instead.
