I'm no expert, but expecting people to work an extra 5 hours PER WEEK seems excessive. That's over 200 hours each year.
Hi Sarah,
I'd say it is just an internal HR policy.
In the private sector at least, I am not aware of any legal or Fair Work requirement that requires an employer to include or not include any...
Hi Harish,
An AHRI accreditation certainly wouldn't be a bad thing. How much weight it carries will vary from one employer/hiring manager to the next, depending on their view of AHRI.
I would...
Hi consult,
When you say "Then I started working with my previous company." - is that the new company who terminated you after 5 months?
Assuming you are referring to the new employer, had you...
Hi Liz,
I believe there is a desperate need for the type of offering you propose, because even when HR personnel actually recognise that employee is suffering from a mental health problem, I suspect...
Mark, I'm no expert, but judging by some Fair Work decisions in the past, I think you should be cautious about instant dismissal. In one case I recall where an employee was dismissed for being...
No, you don't have to sign it. Your employer cannot unilaterally change your employment conditions without your agreement.
Generally speaking, contracts usually have a clause saying that changes have to be agreed in writing by both parties, but even if this wasn't there, unless the contract states that the employer can...
There's another source of medical certificates to contend with - Home | Qoctor your quick online doctor
These certificates are issued by experienced, registered doctors.
I'm no expert, but unless there's a lot more to this than we know, I would think he would have a strong case for an adverse action claim. I'd be thinking about what happens on 30/6 vs what would have...
It sounds like this company needs to taught a lesson or two about performance management. They're living in the past.
Was his contract due to expire on 30/6 anyway, or have they given him a new...
The process sounds pretty flawed to me.
Three team leaders lodge a complaint with the HR Manager about their manager's "style and competence" and are refusing to work with said manager, and when...
Without a more complete picture of the situation and the history it's hard to suggest how to handle this - there are just so many variables. However, I would be suspicious of collusion between the...
Unfortunately, the answer is seems to be "it depends" :-)
Obviously many jobs, in fact almost all jobs, sit somewhere between a min wage receptionist and a CEO.
Some jobs have bonuses...
This is very interesting subject!
Does the NES's 38 hours include breaks? Because if it doesn't then 9am to 6pm is less than 38 hours.
If someone is paid more, surely that is because of their...
However, in WA (unlike most other states) an employee can cash out their LSL, in agreement (in writing) with the employer. Therefore there doesn't seem to be any real impediment to this person...
Thanks Ivana and Greg. I'm helping a friend with this and his company's policy to interview all internal candidates, regardless of how much time it consumes. My initial advice has been to dissuade...
Thanks Ivana. That's exactly what we're trying to avoid. It would be okay if all the applicants were worthy of interview, but some of them haven't got any chance of being appointed, even if there...
I'm keen to hear how employers deal with internal applicants for a job that you have advertised.
In particular, do you interview all internal candidates or do you reject some internal candidates...
Fabsteel, you didn't say what State he is in - LSL rules vary between States.
In some States "cashing out" LSL is only allowed in certain circumstances and may require Industrial Relations...
Tiger, in an earlier post you suggested checking the award for teachers. The Victorian Government Schools Agreement 2013 states "Ordinary hours of duty for full-time employees are 76 hours a...
bullswool,
Regardless of the "numbers", you can't just ignore the law because you think it is unjust because some people get more holiday or get paid more than someone else, and therefore require...
Using this approach someone earning $180k per year could be expected to work 24 hours per day, seven days per week!
An annual salary is commensurate with a particular set of duties,...
Does anyone know whether industrial awards have any affect on a restraint clause in an employment contract, or they completely separate?
I'm asking because a friend who has been employed under an...
