How do I assign the employee's employment status?

Change the employee's employment status. The status refers to the condition of employment in time worked. For example, an employee that works 40 hours a week is a full-time employee. An employee that works 20 hours a week is a part-time employee. While an individual that only works when needed is a contract or temporary employee.
