Explanation:
FTE stands for full-time employee (as opposed to a part-time employee). I have seen both terms translated as "empleado de jornada completa" and "empleado de media jornada." The FTE is the one that works 8 hours a day, 40 hours a week, at least. I hope this helps.

Explanation:
Jornada is more for people who work the land (jornaleros), at least in Mexico we use tiempo completo instead of jornada but maybe it is common use in other latin american countris (I think jornada is a common word used in Chile and Argentina)
