Workplace Advice On Employee Entitlements Over Christmas And New Year

As the end of the year is fast approaching, we recognise that many businesses need to consider and determine employee entitlements over the Christmas and New Year period.

Our Workplace Advisers can answer your questions about employee entitlements when working through the holiday period and businesses shutting down between Christmas and New Year.

We can assist you with:

• directing employees to take leave
• public holidays over Christmas and New Year
• public holidays during annual leave
• paying employees who don’t work on a public holiday
• public holidays during annual leave
• working extra hours and working on public holidays
• JobKeeper and the holiday period.
