Businesses considering closing for Christmas need to follow regulations regarding employee leave and shutdown procedures. Check your relevant Modern Award or agreement for notice periods and leave requirements. If employees lack annual leave, negotiate alternatives or pay their regular hourly rate. Decide if minimal staffing is needed and address any overtime or public holiday pay obligations. Communicate closure dates and staffing needs well in advance to your staff.
