With the Fair Work Amendment (Protecting Vulnerable Workers) Bill 2017 coming into effect last year, it is essential that employers maintain accurate employee records, and keep these for a period of seven years. Download the infographic here.
As of September 2017, penalties for non-compliance of record keeping have increased and employers who cannot give a reasonable excuse must disprove wage related claims in court. We recommend that employers take the time to examine their own records keeping practices, and get professional advice if there are any concerns.
