Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Academic and Global Relations), Professor Kevin McConkey, said almost without exception students at the University were working either part-time or full-time in addition to studying.
“Juggling work and study leaves little time for some students to research and understand their rights and obligations in the workplace. The University is hosting this information session so that students can put questions to the experts in a safe and secure environment, and ensure they have the facts to protect their rights and fulfil their obligations in the workplace.”
