The Fair Work Ombudsman has been contacting businesses regarding the National Clerical Workers Campaign 2011.
The aim of the campaign is to promote and assess compliance with the Commonwealth Work Place Laws including the Fair work Act 2009 (Clwth), Fair Work Regulations 2009 and the Clerks Private Sector Award 2010.The Clerks Private Sector Award 2010 is one of 113 Awards that is administered under the Fair Work Act 2009 (Cwlth). It is important businesses become familiar with all the Awards that cover their employees as other Award campaigns will be undertaken by the Fair Work Ombudsman.
If you are unsure, talk to your Chartered Accountant when planning for the compliance of the Awards.
Alternatively you can look at the website www.fairwork.gov.au which provides information on the Awards including jobs the award covers, hours of work, rosters and annual leave.
