Voluntary Small Business Wage Compliance Code Declaration 2024

 The Fair Work Ombudsman encourages all employers, including small business employers, to make genuine attempts to comply with workplace obligations, recognising that this promotes harmonious, productive and cooperative workplace, reduces disputes and minimises the need for back pay.

The Code provides non-exhaustive examples of efforts that a small business employer can make, and reliable sources from which a small business employer may obtain information to correctly pay full entitlements for their employees.
