the right approach is to merge the two tables since they all define one persona just provide categorization so as you can separate the permanent from the employee through query.
to retrieve a value from one of the two table you normally run a query which contain a field running a code that will search for both table, example, SELECT getEmployeeID(....),... FROM .... Public Function getEmployeeID(...) as ... ...
