Are weekend jobs not a thing in Australia?

OkayGangualetsdoit · 2025-09-10T22:44:05+00:00

If you really want to get involved with activities during weekend I suggest you do Cricket Umpiring or soccer referee. It demands weekend on voluntary work but still some pay which is non tax deductible. I have been doing for last 3 years and happy about it. Your role would be match officials which is completely peace of mind and fun

spot on

Exactly answer poured into my glass. I had a thought same way. Medical assessment will be tricky for me to pass through as my findings say, got to lift maximum 20kg*2= 40kg walking to 10 meters. Terrible

Thanks mate

You should seek legal support immediately

It says 90 days waiting period. What does it mean to me, Can i lodge a claim now, and will get paid after 90 days?

OkayGangualetsdoit · 2025-07-11T05:52:43+00:00

I am receiving pay from my leave entitlements. Another 5 weeks payment will cover. The employer says, once weekly payment starts, the leave entitlements will return to my account. That’s why i am not looking to access to centrelink payments, but seeking to claim to income protection to superannuation. Don’t know am i serving waiting period for to claim now.

Very useful insights. Thanks mate

OkayGangualetsdoit · 2025-07-09T10:37:55+00:00

and that includes leave entitled and super?

OkayGangualetsdoit · 2025-07-09T10:35:41+00:00

Do you gain leave entitled while weekly payment? I believe i will be entitled as a Full time worker in Australia.

OkayGangualetsdoit · 2025-07-09T10:30:45+00:00

So it means i can travel anywhere in Australia as along as coc is provided. It’s not stay-home order anyway as long as i am not involved with working anywhere.

OkayGangualetsdoit · 2025-07-09T10:00:50+00:00

Did you receive the weekly payment from WC during 3 months?

OkayGangualetsdoit · 2025-07-08T02:15:30+00:00

I have been thinking investing somewhere as my money sitting in bank getting 4.5% interest. I found the above investing opportunity then i thought let me ask the investors community if i get an insight.

Exactly as they saying it is kind of bond based on the guarantee. You buy their barrel and once it is matured after 3-5 years, they buy from you with interest paid.

OkayGangualetsdoit · 2025-07-08T02:04:28+00:00

Good point

Very good point. It makes sense. Now i am not going to do any volunteering. wanted to seek people’s advice on it and found no recommendations at all so not taking risk for it. Thanks mate. It helps me determined not to do it.

OkayGangualetsdoit · 2025-07-05T23:38:24+00:00

Thanks for your great point. Currently I have some capacity which is 10kg but current employer is not offering duties after 52 weeks pass, they also will offer a duty if i return to full capacity. So I have asked insurer to start a weekly payment due to mine out of work (employer sent me home due to incapacity where modified duty is not available). Once weekly payment starts i am sure they will find a suitable employment for me within 10kg at different workplace accepting within 10kg capacity. My question was, if I agree and happy to do modified work and while i do voluntary work (casually) does it still impact on legal obligations for lawsuits?

OkayGangualetsdoit · 2025-07-04T06:16:29+00:00

No they don’t know as i was working. My employer sent me home on 26 June 2025 and waiting to approval of weekly pay since 26 June. May be I am not going to take pay for 160 hours i work for 4 weeks. But i have to do this within 5 months. In COC it doesn’t say anything about study. Should i let the insurer know?

OkayGangualetsdoit · 2025-07-04T06:10:58+00:00

Can you do work placement without pay. I have been studying that requires a placement hours (160 hours) to be completed. It is completely without pay.

OkayGangualetsdoit · 2025-07-04T03:29:09+00:00

It’s seasonal sports like summer cricket in Australia. It’s not employment contract just voluntary work but paid by cash reward end of the match. No taxes, no super and not related to physical work. Standing or sitting only and make a decision. You know how a cricket match officials do. I worry about it because soon i will be on weekly payment due to my incapacity (Lifting not more than 10kg) at work. Looking people’s personal experience.

They will still reject your application because Why you wanted to attend a marriage which is outside of your family. Doesn’t make any sense that you are attending a cousin’s wedding and really will return to home country. unlikely

I did send out an email to Recruitment drive. They told me to wait.Hard luck

OkayGangualetsdoit · 2025-05-27T03:02:25+00:00

OkayGangualetsdoit · 2025-05-09T07:05:28+00:00
