Employment Essentials: Payroll Compliance

Payroll compliance is about more than paying people on time. From award interpretation and overtime to deductions, salary arrangements and record keeping, employers need to navigate a complex set of obligations to ensure employees are paid correctly and compliance risks are minimised.

Join Employment Hero’s Amy Rix and Stevie Bowman for a practical session exploring some of the most common payroll challenges employers face. We’ll cover how to manage pay errors, determine the correct award classifications and allowances, navigate overtime obligations, and ensure your payroll processes remain compliant and accurate. 

We’ll cover:

• Managing pay mistakes, underpayments and overpayments
• Understanding implied overtime and authorisation of work
• Deductions and rectifying overpayments lawfully
• Award determination, classifications and allowances
• Salary absorption clauses and how to use them correctly
• Pay records and record-keeping obligations

Whether you’re responsible for payroll, HR, people operations or business compliance, you’ll walk away with practical guidance to help you identify risks, avoid common pitfalls and strengthen your payroll compliance approach.
