Labour hire employees are outpacing employment growth as the Australian Bureau of Statistics reveal a growth in labour hire use. With the number of labour hire employees increasing, reaching about 600 000 (ACTU, 2023), businesses are pressured to implement more automated processes to maintain efficiency and keep up to date with payroll and safety legislations, ensuring the wellbeing and safety of their workforce.
Labour hire: A type of employment in which a company hires employees through a third party agency (a labour hire company) for a specified period of time to complete a specific task.
Keeping a compliance record of all safety and payroll documentation is essential in order to fulfil your legal responsibilities as a business owner. Failure to comply with these regulations can result in legal liability. Employers can face a penalty up to $13 000 for individuals, for not keeping the specified employment records highlighted in the Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety.
