21.01.2022 Beware of Mygov scammers

20.01.2022 The Difference Between an Employee and an Independent Contractor The rights and responsibilities for employees and independent contractors are different. So its important for you to decide if your worker is really an independent contractor or if they should be an employee as the employment laws that apply to each group will be different. An employee is a person who performs work for wages and is managed by a supervisor. They have set hours, you provide the tools and materi...als needed to do the job and they expect work from you. They are covered by your insurances and you pay their super. A contractor charges a fee for their services and uses all their own equipment and materials. They operate their own business working for different companies and have control over how and when the work is performed. They are liable for poor workmanship or if any injuries occur on the job they are covered by their own insurance policy. This year the Fair Work Ombudsman is cracking down on businesses who regularly employ ABN contractors so please have a think about the arrangements you have with your workforce and feel free to contact me if you have any queries

15.01.2022 A business owner is not legally obligated to provide written offers of employment to staff and many of our Pilbara small businesses rely on verbal offers, but sadly it can prove to be very expensive not to have a written contract in place. If a previous employee goes to the Fair Work Ombudsman to request back pay for entitlements and you dont have a signed contract to prove what you paid them was accurate and agreed too, it can become a real problem for you. At Book Buster...s we recommend obtaining a signed formal agreement for new employees before they commence work to ensure that all parties are clear on the terms and conditions of employment and if any disputes do arise this Agreement can be enforced in the civil courts. Call Tanya on 0437 024 023 to find out how Book Busters can help you create agreements for your new or existing employees, advise you of your obligations and manage your payroll needs.

14.01.2022 Do You Have An ATO Tax Debt? From 1 July 2017, a new tax measure will come into play for small businesses, and were here to help prepare you for this tax change. Businesses that havent engaged with the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) to get their tax debts under control could have their tax debt information disclosed to credit reporting agencies by the ATO.... Initially, the ATO will be applying this new disclosure measure to businesses with a tax debt greater than $10,000 and in default (at least 90 days overdue). If your tax debt is disclosed by the ATO, your credit rating will be adversely affected for the next 5 years. What do you need to do? * If you have a tax debt that is 90 days or more overdue, you need to secure a payment arrangement with the ATO before 30 June 2017 (yes, thats tomorrow!), regardless of how big or small the tax debt is. * We also encourage everyone who has outstanding tax payments not yet in default, to get these paid as soon as possible. Tax debts, once disclosed to credit reporting agencies, will go on your credit rating file for 5 years which could greatly impact your chances of securing finance in the future or enter in to credit arrangements with your suppliers. So, it is important to get your tax debts under control as soon as possible, and before 1 July 2017. How can we help you? As your tax agent, we can help you negotiate an effective payment arrangement with the ATO without negatively affecting your cashflow. Get in touch with us today to discuss your options and get your tax debt under control by calling Tanya on 0437 024 023

03.01.2022 Did you know there are 27 pay periods in the 2015/2016 Financial Year, not the regular 26? This means that some employees who are used to getting a tax refund might actually incur a tax debt at the end of this financial year because of the extra period. Its a good idea to provide employees with the option of withholding additional amounts of tax from their pay to avoid possible debt.
