Employment Rights BillContribution
With student visas, in term time students can work up to 20 hours, and in their equivalent of recess they can work full-time. You can see a variety of situations where it would be very convenient for students to lock an employer into guaranteed hours, which may not be beneficial for the employer, recognising also the need to provide long-term permanent work to people who are not students. That variability is an important factor. Perhaps I should not be so ungenerous.
