Hi all,

For those that work, or have worked, in an organisation that has employees transfer in from overseas (within the same organisation), how do you go about handling LSL provisions?

Of most interest is do you allow the employee to have LSL accrued from the commencement of their time with the company, even though not from within Australia, or does it commence accruing from the time they start their contract within Australia?

Also do you have different policies for those that come here on a temporary contract, versus those that come here on a more permament basis (if you can truly tell the difference at the time they arrive)

Hi Cottoneyes

If they come in under an AU contract, then they pick up the LSL entitlement from the date of their AU contract. LSL entitlement is due regardless of temporary or permanent basis,
We also allow for those o/s staff who are transferred to an AU contract to start accruing their entitlements, whilst they are still based offshore, but their work must be controlled by the AU entity to allow this to happen.
