Do you pay your staff a flat hourly rate or annualised salary? For businesses covered by the Pastoral Award (Fair Work) you must have an employment contract in place if you are paying your staff either of these ways.
A contractual setoff clause (flat rate wage) or annualised salary clause (salary) is vital to ensure your business complies with the award and Fair Work Act. The consequences of non-compliance can be quite severe in the form of back pay and fines.
