Checklist for auditing for underpayments of employee entitlements
Introductory note: | |
This checklist identifies issues that employers should consider when auditing workplace arrangements to ensure they are lawfully paying employee entitlements. | |
How to use this checklist: | |
While comprehensive, this checklist is not intended to be a complete list of issues and there may be other issues relevant to an employer’s individual circumstances which are not identified below. | |
We recommend that legal advice is sought if an employer has concerns. The employer may be able to be produce that legal advice to the court to assist in arguments against the imposition of penalties or orders for compensation in any subsequent legal action for an underpayment. | |
