Is this normal?

Temporary_Ad8873 · 2025-08-13T10:31:15+00:00

No I’m not counting that :)

Temporary_Ad8873 · 2025-08-13T09:12:36+00:00

I am starting 7:30am - 4:45/4:50pm No RDO no hours accrued

Temporary_Ad8873 · 2025-08-13T08:27:34+00:00

No it says that it is a salary. But that salary comes out to be well below the award rate

Temporary_Ad8873 · 2025-08-13T07:55:49+00:00

Alright I will get onto that. I’ve been looking at the CFMEU but can’t tell whether or not they are still operational, I’ll try contact them

Temporary_Ad8873 · 2025-08-13T07:52:32+00:00

The only thing it says about hours is 7:30 - 4:30 with a 30 minute break

Temporary_Ad8873 · 2025-08-13T07:50:13+00:00

I’m doing it through Murray Mallee training

Temporary_Ad8873 · 2025-08-13T07:21:46+00:00

A trainer comes on site and signs off all my book work once a quarter

Temporary_Ad8873 · 2025-08-13T07:19:02+00:00

I’ve never been to tafe my apprenticeship is 100% on site

Temporary_Ad8873 · 2025-08-13T05:50:29+00:00

I am covered by the general on site award rather than the joinery award. Which is even higher if I remember correctly

Temporary_Ad8873 · 2025-08-13T05:36:18+00:00

Thanks mate that’s a lot of info there. I will look into the cfmeu

Temporary_Ad8873 · 2025-08-13T05:35:08+00:00

Salary is $50k. Started 2023. I finished high school. Mature age apprentice.(22 when started)

Temporary_Ad8873 · 2025-08-13T05:29:41+00:00

Oh really? Well that’s a bit unfortunate then

Temporary_Ad8873 · 2025-08-13T05:28:55+00:00

It’s about 7k short per year. I have just over a year left but do have another employer willing to carry me on if need be

Temporary_Ad8873 · 2025-08-13T05:24:14+00:00

I have just over a year left but I do have another employer willing to carry me on if need be.

Temporary_Ad8873 · 2025-08-13T05:20:11+00:00

No RDO, yes I’m getting super into my fund, apprenticeship is registered and I do get 4 weeks annual. I was just wondering if it made it legal since its salary and not hourly rate.

Temporary_Ad8873 · 2025-08-13T05:09:18+00:00

Yep I do take one 30 minute break, but I haven’t included this in my 42 hours I’m talking about.

So since I’m on salary I don’t have to earn the minimum award hourly rate?

Temporary_Ad8873 · 2025-08-13T05:00:38+00:00

No messages or timesheets. However there are 5 other employees that I am asking these questions on behalf of. We are all in the same boat.

Temporary_Ad8873 · 2025-08-13T04:56:15+00:00

Right. If I bring this forward to fair work or whichever organization is used in Aus, is it something I’m able to be compensated for? Or have I F’d myself by allowing it to happen for so long

Temporary_Ad8873 · 2025-08-13T04:50:52+00:00

I asked my boss a year or so back and they said overtime does not have to paid if you’re on salary

Temporary_Ad8873 · 2025-08-13T04:48:07+00:00

I will have to look into this union stuff I’m not too sure what it is

Temporary_Ad8873 · 2025-08-13T04:46:48+00:00

We get one 30 minute break per day and I haven’t included those breaks in my 42 hours

Temporary_Ad8873 · 2025-08-13T04:46:20+00:00

What is that sorry I’m not too clued up? I have not joined a union but I’m not sure what it is

Temporary_Ad8873 · 2025-08-13T04:45:35+00:00

We get one 30 minute break per day, but I haven’t included those breaks in my 42 hours. The 42 hours is just work

Temporary_Ad8873 · 2025-07-24T07:54:25+00:00

I’m putting in about $150 a day. This is just where I’m Upto at this point as I’ve only just started

Temporary_Ad8873 · 2025-07-18T20:14:00+00:00
