Continuous Compliance

Why you need our Continuous Compliance package: There is no ‘set and forget’ approach when it comes to compliance

The Fair Work Commission audit to review the National Minimum Wage occurs between March and June each year with changes typically coming into effect from the 1st July

It’s critical for businesses to stay on top of these changes to ensure that wages and entitlements are compliant across the entirety of their workforce.

Additionally, businesses must check on the anniversary of each employee’s start date ensure they are being paid the correct wages and receiving the right entitlements as per the award.

If you are caught underpaying staff or not giving them the correct entitlements, you could face fines, depending on the seriousness of the contravention.

You will also be required to backpay employees for any underpaid wages, penalties, and superannuation.

If you are caught doing the wrong thing, your employees have the right to make a compliant to the Fair Work Ombudsman, who in turn, may launch an investigation, adding further stress and financial strain.

The Fair Work Ombudsman publicly publishes information about businesses breaching workplace laws, which can result in reputational damage.

Any wrongdoing may also result in the Fair Work Ombudsman to conduct further audits or investigations, leading to further penalties and enforceable undertakings to improve compliance practices.

Using our proprietary wage compliance solution at a frequency that suits your business, we analyse your payroll and time and attendance data to look for any red flags.

We then provide you with a robust yet easy-to-read report highlighting whether everything’s on track or if potential issues have been identified.

This proactive, ongoing approach means problems can be addressed in real time, rather than discovering them years down the track – which can result in fines, largescale back paying, reputational damage or in serious cases, imprisonment.

Our fixed price Continuous Compliance package gives you the confidence to operate business as usual, without the stress of worrying about compliance.

By offering practical, ongoing support on a basis that suits your business needs, we can help you meet your obligations with confidence by:

Ensuring your business continues to adhere to minimum wage laws, penalty rates and allowances outlined in awards.

Running checks on the anniversary of each employee’s start date to ensure you haven't underpaid them and remain compliant.

Keeping up with changes in award conditions and rates, ensuring they are correctly applied.
