Now that you have finally found the right person for the job you will need to properly state and secure the terms and conditions of their employment so both the employee and you as the employer know where you stand.
To do this you must "navigate the maze" of changing workplace & employment laws to ensure that your Employment Contracts and Independent Contractor Agreements are up to date and consistent with the extensive recent and future changes being made to Australia's industrial relations and employment laws.
In Australia in recent years, workplace legislation has been an ever changing area of the law and with the Rudd government's changes coming into effect on July 1 2009 and January 1 2010, there are more reasons than ever why businesses need to stay in touch and understand the implications for your business - especially if you are an SME.
There are also many different ways in which to engage employees in your workplace and it's important to choose the one that best suits your business and its needs. Do you need an Employment Agreement for a new employee? Which Employment Agreement is the right one? Is an Independent Contractor Agreement a better solution for your Company? What is the difference?
