Hi all,
Does anyone know of a good resource which details what defines a work experience person and at what point they should be a paid employee? i.e., where someone wants work experience (happy for it be unpaid) but wants to work one day a week for the next 7 or 8 weeks - is this seen as work experience or fixed term contract employee?
any assistance on this is really appreciated.
thanks

Hi Rachael
So basically there are some very specific requirements about whether someone is truly undertakieng work experience / or volunteering versus say an internship.
Check out some guidance here:
