From my experience, most temp/contractors are shown the door "immediately" once a decision has been made to reduce headcount. That is one of the very reasons the position is not a permanent one to begin with, and it's a two way street. Everything should be done with professionalism, but imo a "two week" notice to the employer (for a temp position) is a lot to expect given the circumstances. I can assure you that most employer's would not, and will not think twice about the abrupt termination of ANY temporary employee. In fact, in my experience with the corporate decision making process, they don't even enter the equation...they are just a resource .
