Frequently Asked Questions FAQs
What is an award compliance audit?
An award compliance audit is a detailed review of your payroll and employment practices to ensure they align with relevant Modern Awards or Enterprise Agreements. It includes analysis of pay rates, classifications, allowances, leave entitlements, and more.
How often should we conduct an award compliance audit?
We recommend conducting an audit annually or whenever there are significant changes in your workforce, award updates, or Fair Work rulings that may impact your obligations.
Can this service identify underpayments?
Absolutely. Our award compliance audit services are specifically designed to detect underpayments and misclassifications before they become legal issues.
How long does the audit process take?
The duration depends on the size and complexity of your business. For most small-to-medium enterprises, we complete audits within 2–4 weeks from the time we receive your payroll data.
What if my business uses payroll software?
Even with advanced payroll systems, misinterpretations of awards can lead to errors. We work alongside your software to ensure configurations align correctly with award obligations.
