As we approach the festive season where work particularly in your area could get busy the FSU wants you to know your rights on the following:
“Buzz Nights”
Attendance to these sessions held in the evenings is NOT mandatory. You can choose to attend however it will be unpaid.
Start Before Start times
You cannot be required to be at your workplace to attend to any other duties (cleaning, counting cash etc) prior to your rostered start time. If you are requested to attend to duties prior to your shift or finish after your contracted hours of work then you should be paid for that time. FSU recommends keeping track of any additional hours manually so you have a record of the hours you actually worked and we can assist your claim for payment if you aren’t paid.
Relief for Sick Leave/Annual Leave
It is not your responsibility to find relief when taking Sick Leave or Annual Leave. TMOZ cannot put pre-conditions on you such as finding your own relief before leave is granted.
Contact the FSU on 1300366 378 if you would like further information.
