Karen Vercoe from HR Online shares her insights into employing casual staff.
We simply put someone on as a casual, they do the job and after a while we just keep them as a casual. Problem is that once they are working for you for more than about 6 months and you expect them to turn up every week, they aren’t a casual anymore—even if you call them a casual, it does not make them a casual. If you dismiss someone at this time, they could have an unfair dismissal case against you. Ensure that you change your staff over to permanent part-time as soon as there is any regularity to their role, and an expectation by you that that person is going to come in from week to week. This will save you a lot of grief if you terminate a casual who isn’t actually a casual and you get caught up in an unfair dismissal case. Also, it is a lot better financially for the business if they are permanent part-time rather than casual. Obviously you don’t have to pay the 25% loading if they are permanent part-time and any overtime they do is also going to be at the lesser rate. If you require assistance with contracts let us know. You can visit www.hronline.com.au if you would like to do it yourself.
