    anybody here employ juniors?

    just trying to find some info on wages and min/max. hours

    my nearly 15yo is stoked with his hourly rate, he normally gets his 12hrs/week (max. hours apparently, not that we want him doing any more)

    the shop has an EA with a flat rate of pay, however the award pays more

    just compared his pay rate to what's on fair work website....is there any other websites that I can look at?

    I just haven't got my head around flat rates and/or if I have the right award......he works at a fish and chip shop

    Determine which union covers the job and ask one of their organisers or industrial officers.

    From the fair work website (Fast Food Industry)

    17. Minimum weekly wages

    [17 varied by PR997880,PR509034,PR522865,PR536668,PR551591 ppc 01Jul14]

    Classifications


    Per week


    $

    Level 1


    703.90

    Level 2


    746.20

    Level 3—In charge of one or no persons


    757.80

    —In charge of two or more persons


    766.90



    18. Junior rates

    Junior employees will be paid the following percentage of the appropriate wage rate in clause 17—Minimum weekly wages:

    Age


    % of weekly wage

    Under 16 years of age


    40

    16 years of age


    50

    17 years of age


    60

    18 years of age


    70

    19 years of age


    80

    20 years of age


    90
    So $7.40/hr by my calculations... (38 hr week), however there should then be a 25% loading for casuals (I think) - which brings it to $9.26/hr.

    Also have a read here:
    Minimum wages - Fact sheets - Fair Work Ombudsman

    If you calculate based on national minimum wage you get $6.75/hr and $8.43 with casual loading. AFAIK it is unlawful to [pay below national minimum wage.

    That's what my young bloke gets in a similar job - full time, so looks like it should be on the money (excuse the pun)
    If you need to contact me please email homestarrunnerau@gmail.com - thanks - Gav.
