Recently, one of our clients underwent a random audit by the Fair Work Ombudsman.
They were looking into all aspects of the employer/employee relationship from meeting minimum wage requirements to payslips. Our client was OK except they were not issuing payslips correctly and were fined $180 (although this apparently is on the low side of what they could have been fined).
What this incident does highlight though is the need for employers to ensure all their human resource requirements are being met. Click on the attached link to view the Employer obligations in relation to employee records and pay slips published by the Fair Work Ombudsman
