14.01.2022 If youre under JobKeeper, your boss can require you to change duties using a JobKeeper enabling direction, but there are rules. So, unless you normally do dome...stic work for your boss, you shouldnt be cleaning their house. Your boss can direct you to change duties, but the new duties must be: safe, including considering the nature and spread of coronavirus within the scope of your skills and ability and you must hold any licenses or qualifications required to do the job, and reasonably within the scope of your employers business operations. There are other rules, too. So, for example, your boss also needs to discuss the changes with you and give you at least three days written notice before giving you the direction, unless you agree to less. Also, your pay cant be reduced for doing different duties. If the duties attract a higher base rate, you need to be paid at that higher rate.

08.01.2022 We recently investigated a taxpayer who claimed $3,800 for transporting bulky tools to and from work. He said there was no secure area to store them at his work...place but when we talked to his employer, they told us that he had a company car and didnt actually need to transport the equipment Since the taxpayer didnt incur any expenses and knowingly misrepresented his circumstances, we knocked back the claim and applied a penalty.

07.01.2022 Theres no such thing as a standard deduction this is a myth! Fact: While you can claim up to $300 in work-related expenses without detailed receipts, ...its not an automatic entitlement. You still need to be able to show how you calculated your claims and why theyre work related. Get the scoop on records you need to keep at www.ato.gov.au//income-and-deduct/records-you-need-to-keep

06.01.2022 Myth: Its ok to be paid off the books. Fact. It really isnt. If youre being paid under the table (also known as cash-in-hand pay), you likely arent meeting... your tax obligations or getting your super entitlements, and youre at risk of being underpaid your minimum pay rates. Myth: You dont get paid for opening/closing the business. Fact: Employees must be paid for all hours theyre required to work and this includes time spent opening or closing a business. For example, if an employee is required to be at work at 7.45am to prepare for an 8am store opening (like cleaning and counting the till), they need to be paid from 7.45am. Myth: Lengthy unpaid work trials are always ok thats how you get your foot in the door. Fact: Unpaid work trials are only ok for as long as needed to demonstrate the skills required for the job. Depending on the nature of the work, this could range from an hour to one shift and you should always be under direct supervision. Myth: You only need to get a pay slip if you ask for one. You need to be given a pay slip for every pay day. Its a legal requirement. We also recommend employees keep their own records of when they work. This can help you check youre being paid right and sort out any pay disputes.
