Good Record Keeping; Manage Your Employee Records With CrewCard!

While different countries have their own employment regulations, it is important to understand your local fair work legislation and follow good record-keeping practices to ensure your organisation adheres to workforce compliance. Failure to keep necessary employee records can result in a breach of the Fair Work Act and lead to serious contraventions and penalties.

In reality however, managing large files of employees' records can be challenging. Thanks to the emergence of HR management tools like CrewCard, organisations can now manage and store numerous employees under one centralised platform. This can significantly reduce administration burdens and cut costs for organisations.

What are the employment rule in Australia?

In Australia, employers must retain employment records for at least 7 years (duration may vary in other countries). According to the Fair Work Act 2009, it is mandatory to:

  • Employment/ contract indicating start and termination dates
  • Record and provide regular payslips detailing date, hours worked, pay, and overtime
  • Applicable employment agreement, award, or contract
  • Leave accruals (annual leave, personal leave)
  • Superannuation fund and contribution details
  • Trade certificates and necessary qualifications (e.g., RSA, Working with Children Check)
  • Work entitlement documents (e.g., Visa/VEVO checks)
