Requirements For Record Keeping And Providing Pay Slips
From 27 March 2007, the new record keeping requirements come into operation following amendments to the Workplace Regulations 2006. The new requirements are less onerous than originally proposed under WorkChoices. Employers to whom WorkChoices applies need to be aware of these requirements as penalties may apply for non compliance.
Employers are required to keep an individual record for each employee. These records must be legible, in English, readily accessible to a workplace inspector and be in a condition that would allow a workplace inspector to ascertain an employee’s entitlements and whether the employee is receiving those entitlements.
