Hi
Has anyone ever heard of a company backdating AL entitlements for labour hire staff who are becoming permanent employees?
We have a few employees who have been with the company for 6mths+ as labour hire. They were told when they first started, that after 45 days with the company they would be made permanent employees. This did not happen due to issues within the company at the time. Now, 6+ months later, we are offering them permanent positions but they are asking to have AL entitlements backdated so that they started to accrue at the end of the 45 days from their initial appointment. Is this a common practice? Has anyone heard of this before?
Thanks for your help!
