Banded Hours Contract Bill 2016: Discussion (Resumed)

4:00 pm

Mr. Daniel Waugh:

There is a certain threshold a student has to pass for that. We are saying the lower banded hours is the guaranteed minimum people will work. We look at how many students actually work. What we are saying at the moment is we will look more towards the lower band of the contracts and if those people do seasonal work or, for example, go home from college, at least they are getting their minimum hours during their work time. We are focused on the hours.
