Superannuation

Medicare
Funded through a 2% levy on taxable income, Medicare gives employees access to a wide range of healthcare services, from hospital treatment to prescription medicines.
We stay ahead, so you never fall behind
Fair Work Act coverage
Stay aligned with the Fair Work Act, 2009, which applies to most workers in Australia, covering wages, hours, and leave entitlements.
Worker classification & penalties
Misclassifying employees as contractors can lead to tax penalties and back payments. We can help with correct classification and employment contracts.
Workplace safety
We can help you stay aligned with the Work Health and Safety Act, 2011 (Cth), supporting a safe work environment for all employees.
Audit-ready documentation
We can help you maintain organized employment records and timely submissions so you’re prepared for reviews or checks.
Your employees get what they’re owed
Annual leaves

Employees can take up to 10 days of paid personal/carer’s leave each year, plus additional unpaid leave if needed.

Letting go is hard; doing it wrong is worse. We know how to do this well and compliantly
Notice periods & documentation
Under Australia’s National Employment Standards (NES), employers must provide minimum notice periods ranging from one week for employees with less than one year of service up to five weeks for those over 45 with at least two years of service.
