18.01.2022 Making sure your staff are on the same page moving forward is another key element to business success. Here I explain why and some ways you can help your team all get onto the same page. If you are having trouble having that conversation, reach out.

17.01.2022 An employer receiving JobKeeper payments can ask an eligible employee to work additional hours, but the usual requirements in the Fair Work Act apply. Any addit...ional hours worked need to be reasonable, and you can refuse to work unreasonable additional hours. If the only reason for a request to work additional hours is to match the amount of the JobKeeper payment, that is not likely to be reasonable. Your employer also needs to comply with any other terms and conditions of employment that apply to you (like the rules from your award, enterprise agreement or employment contract). Your employer must pay your usual base rate of pay for the additional hours, as well as any penalty rates or overtime pay that may apply. Under the general protections provisions of the Fair Work Act, its unlawful for your employer to force (or try to force) you to work unreasonable additional hours, or to tell you that you must work additional hours as a condition of receiving the amount of the JobKeeper payment. https://coronavirus.fairwork.gov.au//changing-duties-locat

16.01.2022 Good news for employers of part-time employees. The High Court has today overturned an earlier decision that ruled personal leave was to be 10 days a year for all permanent employees - part-time and full-time. This went against the widespread interpretation that personal leave accrued on the ordinary hours of work (like annual leave). The reality of the earlier decision was that a part time employee who worked only one day a week, would still be entitled to 10 full days of p...ersonal leave a year. The Court has today stated that the earlier ruling was impractical and unbalanced and has ruled that personal leave will accrue according to the hours worked.

15.01.2022 If you are a business and have been impacted by the coronavirus (COVID-19), you may be eligible to access the JobKeeper Payment. Before you enrol for the JobKeeper Payment, you need to complete the JobKeeper employee nomination notice to: * notify your eligible employees that you intend to participate in the scheme... * ask them if they agree to be nominated and receive payments from you as part of the scheme. https://www.ato.gov.au//JobKeeper-payment---employee-nom/

05.01.2022 Thinking about bringing your workers back into the workplace? Then its important to know what your obligations are.

You can maintain a safe work environment by, for example: ... cleaning the workplace regularly and thoroughly restructuring the layout of the workplace to allow for physical distancing, and limiting the number of people in the workplace at any given time. You must also provide adequate facilities in your workplace to protect your workers from contracting COVID-19. Facilities that are required include: washroom facilities including adequate supply of soap, water and paper towel hand sanitiser, where it is not possible for workers to wash their hands, and staff rooms that are regularly cleaned and allow for physical distancing. Provide workers with regular breaks to use these facilities, particularly to allow workers to wash their hands.

04.01.2022 Our JobKeeper FAQ today is "Can I reduce my employees hours to match the JobKeeper payment?"

04.01.2022 Unfair Dismissal Increases How can you protect yourself against an unfair dismissal claim? The short answer is you cant. It is very easy for an employee to make an unfair dismissal application and cheap, only $73.20. So what have they got to lose? Theres no doubt COVID-19 has had a significant impact on Australian employment figures and now were seeing an increase in unfair fair dismissal applications being lodged. ... The increase in applications can be attributed to three primary reasons: The first one is purely a numbers game, a lot are out of work. People are scared and worried about their finances. Employers are / were scared too and felt like they had to make a quick decision for the viability of their business. The important thing is not so much how to avoid an unfair dismissal claim but proceed as if you are preparing for one. If you enact all terminations as if they will be scrutinised by the Commission then you are in a much better place than if you dont. The key points to ask yourself when enacting a termination are: Could the termination be considered to be harsh, unjust or unfair? Have I consulted with the employee, explained the issues or concerns and provided them with an opportunity to respond and / or improve? Have I considered all relevant factors including seriousness of the issue, ability of the employee to improve, length of service, previous work history, age, ability of the employee to get another job, mitigating circumstances? Have I given these and the employees responses due and genuine consideration? Have I followed due process? Enacting a termination can be difficult, but you dont need to go it alone. At HR Maximised, were happy to discuss your concerns and help guide you through the termination process. #humanresources #hradvice #unfairdismissal #bestadvice #management #productivity
