FAQ

Employers should look at employment contracts as an opportunity to set out the terms of employment as they apply to your workplace.  This includes hours of work, pay rates, probation periods, termination clauses, confidentiality etc and may include references to the Fair Work Act, Modern Awards and the NES. The legislation in Australia in relation to employment is extensive and whilst employers need to be aware of this it is important that employees receive notification from their employer of what employment terms have been agreed to. Our Contracts and Letters Toolkit will provide you with the foundation to create your terms of employment with your employees.

We keep up to date through various means including legal websites such as the Fair Work Commission, Fair Work Ombudsman and many others to keep us fresh with what is an ever-changing landscape.

The WHS Toolkit is what we like to refer to as the foundation of your overall WHS strategy. This toolkit is compliant with the AS4801, which covers WHS systems for all workplaces. The toolkit will guide you through the entire process to set it up. The templates do need to be populated for your workplace so you still need to put some effort into it but once you have it up and running you can simply continue to build. Some of our clients prefer us to set this particular piece up for them, which we can do remotely or on-site. Call or email us for a quote today.
