Many organisations find it beneficial to employ students during the summer. Permanent staff often wish to take their own holidays over this period. Furthermore, it is not uncommon for companies to experience peak workloads in the summer and so require extra staff. Summer employment also attracts students who may return as well qualified recruits to an organisation when they have completed their education. Ensuring that the students learn as much as possible about the organisation encourages their interest in working on a permanent basis. Organisations pay students on a fixed rate without the usual entitlement to paid holidays or sick leave.

Passage No. 4
The computer system is limited in the number of reports it can generate. The Workflow Report was designed to allow the manager to print or view the workflow activity of the department. Department managers must have "senior access" rights in order to generate this report. The System Administrator and four other staff only are permitted to give users access rights to the computer system. "Viewing Access" rights are one of three sets of rights available to users. Reports have to be designed by computer programmers who have "report writing" access rights. All reports with the exception of the Security Breach Report are compatible with the department's word processing computer package. The Security Breach Report can be generated to show the security password of the user that breached the system. All staff are advised to keep their password secret and not to disclose it to any third party. The System Usage report and the Security Breach report can only be generated by the System Administrator.
