What you need to know about Casual Employment

What you need to know about casual employment

As you may know, AMA (NSW) holds a series of seminars across the year on Employer Essentials: Contracts and Fair Work Act Compliance. During the course of these seminars, there has been significant interest from employers about further information on casual employees. In response to this demand, and in light of recent regulatory and case developments, we have now created a 90 minute seminar on what you need to know about casual employment. If you employ casual employees at your practice, we encourage you to attend this session!

Participants will learn about:

· Casual employees under the Fair Work Act

· Casual employment under Modern Awards, including casual conversion

· The risks of employing long term casuals, including the decision in Workpac v Skene

· The AMA (NSW) casual contract, and how to access it

Workshop Timing

Parking:

AMA House is very close to St Leonards train station or buses along the Pacific Highway. Nearby street parking is mostly 2hr metered and is very limited as there is a lot of construction happening in the area, however there are two carparks where you can pre-book a space:

1. https://parkmonkey.com.au/ - operate casual car parking spaces in our building (69 Christie Street, ST LEONARDS) for $13 per day. Please make sure that you only park in Park Monkey labelled spaces as cars incorrectly parked do get clamped/towed.
2. Wilson carpark - almost opposite our building.
