Fineberg: This statement was prepared jointly by HUCTW and representatives of the University on casual employees. The statement summarizes the very productive work done by the joint committee working on this issue. I am confident that you will join me in supporting the sentiments in the statement, and that we can all work toward future compliance in both the letter and the spirit of the rules on casual workers.
