What payroll rights do casual employees have?
Casual employees in Australia have some different rights compared to full-time or part-time workers. Here’s a quick rundown of the important stuff:
- Minimum wage: Casual workers get paid at least the minimum hourly rate set by the government.
- Casual loading: Instead of paid leave (like sick leave or vacation time), casual employees get a bonus on their hourly rate called “casual loading.” This is usually around 20-25% extra on top of their base pay.
- Notice and termination: No need to give notice before letting a casual employee go, but some states might offer long-serving casuals a heads-up or some severance pay.
- Superannuation: Employers have to contribute towards casual employees’ Superannuation. The exact amount and who qualifies depends on the situation. Check the Australian Taxation Office website for details.
The exact rules can vary depending on your industry and state. Make sure your casual employees are treated fairly to avoid penalties down the road.
How to make payslips for casual employees?
You can manually create a payslip through a spreadsheet to calculate gross pay, deductions (if applicable), and net pay.
