Retail executives, managers, human resources, and payroll professionals all have a part to play in understanding and applying the complex rostering rules within the General Retail Industry Award 2020 (Retail Award). To assist our members in eliminating the headache that comes with preparing rosters, the Australian Retail Council has developed a 2-hour online workshop that will unpack the rostering principles and highlight the intricacies of the Retail Award.
This live and interactive online workshop will deliver an overview of compliant rostering practices, minimising your exposure to overtime penalties and underpayment claims.
Workshop Topics:
In this 2-hour workshop, we will break down your obligations under the Retail Award and outline strategies for managing efficiency and productivity. In particular, we will focus on:
- Common rostering pitfalls;
- How different employment types impact rostering practices;
- Understanding ordinary hours of work, breaks, penalties, and loadings;
- Notifying employees of shifts and changes to the roster;
- The inter-relationship between the complex rostering rules in the Retail Award;
