Most students, casual, and term employees have end dates in December 2022 and January 2023.

If you are planning on extending or rehiring these employees, you must start your staffing actions now! Timely submissions will ensure there is no unplanned break in their employment period. Reach out to HR Connect RH and they will help support and guide you through the staffing process!

Please follow these guidelines if you want to extend the employment:
