Thousands of businesses every year refuse to meet the obligations for employees or are unaware of the employee entitlements. A business fails to pay appropriate minimum wages to both employees, let alone award base rates, overtime rates and penalty rates.
Businesses, business owners, managers, and HR professionals should be aware of the appropriate industrial relations instrument that applies to their employees to ensure they are meeting their minimum obligations.
Underpayments can be claimed for the previous six years even if there were underpayments that occurred years ago. E.g. If an employee was underpaid in 2015, they are still able to make a claim in 2021.
Every business must ensure they are meeting their obligations. Fines of up to $31,000 for not complying.
