Q & A
What is the importance of determining whether an employee left by their own decision or if their employment was terminated?
-Determining the reason for an employee's departure is crucial as it affects the final calculations for termination payments, including eligible termination payments such as unpaid leave and redundancy payouts.
What are eligible termination payments and why are they less taxed?
-Eligible termination payments include items like untaken leave that an employee is entitled to but hasn't taken due to termination or resignation. These payments are less taxed because they are considered a form of compensation for the termination of employment.
How does an employee's entitlement to redundancy payment work?
-An employee who has worked full-time for a company for at least 12 months and whose position becomes redundant is entitled to a redundancy payment. The amount of the payment depends on the length of service and is treated as an eligible termination payment.
What is the role of the redundancy calculator on the Fair Work website?
-The redundancy calculator on the Fair Work website helps in determining the appropriate redundancy payment based on the employee's length of service and the specific circumstances of the redundancy.
What does the speaker suggest as the best way to learn about calculating termination payments?
-The speaker suggests that the best way to learn is by doing the calculations yourself when the situation arises, then checking your work with HR managers or senior accountants to understand where you might have gone wrong or if you were correct.
What is the concept of industry redundancies as mentioned in the script?
-Industry redundancies refer to specific arrangements within certain industries, like construction, where a certain amount is paid per week or month as a form of redundancy cover, acknowledging the transient nature of employment in these sectors.
How does the speaker describe the role of unions in Australia?
-The speaker describes unions in Australia as having been a necessary and beneficial movement in the past, but now, in their opinion, they have become somewhat redundant due to the already high standards of pay and conditions in the country.

-The script mentions allowances such as meal allowances, travel allowances, and allowances for shift work and working at height, which are specific to the industry and can be influenced by union regulations.
What is the difference between an hourly rate and a salary in terms of overtime pay?
-An hourly rate typically includes overtime pay at a higher rate (e.g., time and a half, double time), while a salary is considered an all-in rate that compensates for any ad hoc overtime work that might occur.
How does the speaker view the flexibility of the Australian employment system?
