The Paycheck Monitoring service is recommended to employees who may not be familiar with Australia employment conditions and legislation. Government organisations do not have the resources to verify that all employers are paying their employees correctly. Paycheck Investigators will review your agreement to ensure it complies with Australian legislation.
Case Study 4
Background
A large retail and manufacturing butcher had employed a 21-year-old as a salesperson, with a view to possibly entering into an apprenticeship arrangement. For a period of six months the employee was paid at the apprentice rate, rather than the sales person's rate. This resulted in an underpayment of approximately $9000.
