Long Service Leave

Australian employees may be entitled to long service leave, typically after 10 years of continuous service. This varies by state or territory and can be influenced by awards, agreements, or contracts. The leave is usually paid at their regular rate and can range from 6 to 13 weeks initially, with additional leave possible for longer service. Employees should check their state/territory requirements and communicate with their employer to understand their specific entitlements and take leave accordingly.
