Do you employ people?

Weston & Associates Ltd Chartered Accountants

Following the recent minimum wage increase, now is the ideal time for you to ensure your business's employment agreements (contracts) are up to date.

On April 1, the adult minimum wage increased from $18.90 to $20.00 gross per hour, and the starting-out and training minimum wage increased from $15.12 to $16.00 gross per hour.

You can use this as an opportunity to ensure you are meeting your legal obligations and build stronger staff relationships. Also, consider potential impacts of the minimum wage increase on internal wage relativity, external benchmarking and staff current and future pay expectations.

By law every employee must have a current written employment contract. It must state the wage rate or salary payable, which must be equal or more than the relevant minimum wage. With any changes of wages, the employer must send a contract variation letter advising of the new wage. Negotiated and used fairly such contracts can be a great foundation for win/win, productive employment relationships with your staff.

If you are looking for a good payroll system for a start up or for an existing business, we can recommend one and look after your taxes and accounting needs at the same time.

Photos and slides not digital? Why Not?

Kathy from Glendowie

Now is the time to sort out those lovely photos and slides of your family friends and your own pictorial history.

We ensure your older photos are digistized so you can enjoy them on your TV or computer for many years to come.

Our home based business is a personal one, your photos and slides are treated well and individually scanned with care.

The colour can be improved and in many cases make old yellowed ones look like they were taken yesterday.

Talk to us today as to how we can help you.
