Your boss can’t just choose how short your shifts will be. The rules about the minimum hours you must get for each shift are set by your award or agreement.

For example, under the Hair and Beauty Award part-time employees must be rostered for at least 3 consecutive hours of work on any shift (or be paid for 3 hours). For full-time employees, it depends on their rostered hours. The minimum engagement of a casual is three hours.

Under the Security Award, full-time employees must be rostered for at least 7.6 hours per shift. Part-time employees must be rostered for at least 4 hours or 20% of their agreed weekly hours (whichever is more). Casuals must be rostered for at least 4 hours each shift.

Don’t forget, you must be paid for the minimum hours even if you aren’t required to work for the whole time.

Wait to your income statement says "Tax Ready"!

Tax time is here – but not so fast! ✋

If you wait until late July before lodging, most of your info will be pre-filled for you! This includes your employment income, bank interest, private health insurance, dividends, and most government payments you may have received.

All you’ll need to do is check your info, add anything that’s missing, include any deductions – and you’re done! 🙌🥳

Tip: Avoid needing to make changes later by making sure all your income statements are marked as ‘tax ready’ before your lodge ✔️

Deadline approaching! You need to do your superannuation reconciliation now and submit to avoid SGC fees!

Employers: Your next super guarantee payments are due to employees’ super funds by Friday 28 January.

If you can't pay by the due date, you'll need to lodge a super guarantee charge statement with us. We can also work with you to set up a payment plan, if you can’t pay the super guarantee charge in full.

Soooo ... we have no nbn internet ... which is just dandy when you have deadlines. Honestly this sucks. At the worst time and I'm already over covid-19. Am hot spotting until sorted but it's so slow and drops in and out. So apologies to my beautiful clients ... if you haven't got my queries yet I'm working on it.

For those of you affected by the current lockdown situation ...

Your employer may be able to stand you down without pay if an enforceable government direction requires the business to close and you can’t be usefully employed. Before standing you down, your employer should consider all other options.

Leave entitlements, like annual leave and paid sick leave still accrue while you’re stood down without pay. Time spent stood down also counts towards your service for things like notice, redundancy and eligibility for parental leave.

We’ve got more info about enforceable government directions and stand down entitlements here:

We know some employers are doing it tough at the moment, and paying super may be the last thing on your mind.

The next superannuation guarantee payment date is 28 July and we’re unable to give extensions to the due date. If you can't pay by the due date, you'll need to lodge a superannuation guarantee charge statement. If you can’t pay in full, we’ll work with you to set up a payment plan.
