Cancellation of work experience
A work experience arrangement may be cancelled at any time by written notice from the principal or nominated person to the employer, or from the employer to the principal or nominated person. It is effective immediately upon receipt of the written notice from the relevant party.
Students are encouraged to raise any concerns about their placement with their school as early as possible for the principal or nominated person to consider whether the placement should continue or not.
An employer must not cancel a work experience arrangement without consulting the principal or nominated person, unless in circumstances where it is not reasonable to require the employer to do so.
