An agreement may be entered into for any period not exceeding one month or for any number of days’ work not exceeding 26 or for the performance by a worker for an employer of any specified piece of work capable of being completed within one month from the commencement of the work.

Provided that each party to an agreement for a period not exceeding one month shall on the termination of such agreement in the manner aforesaid be conclusively presumed to have entered into a fresh agreement upon the same terms and conditions as those of the agreement so terminated unless notice has been given previously by either party to such agreement in accordance with the provisions of section 12.
