The Fair Work Commission has announced a 3% increase to minimum wages. The new national minimum wage will be $740.80 per week ($19.49/hr).
The increase applies from the first full pay period starting on or after 1 July 2019.
The increase will also apply to wage structures within each Modern Award.
As a consequence of the decision, we recommend that you take the time to review staff wages. At Human Outsource we have developed a very cost effective service offering that incorporates a Better of Overall Test (BOOT) to benchmark how you are currently paying relative to your minimum statutory obligations as well as the development of the necessary paperwork to issue to your staff if remuneration variations are necessary.
