It is now a requirement that employers (except employers with less than 15 employees) must provide the opportunity for casual employees to convert to permanent employment where the employee has:
- been employed for 12 months, and;
- for at least the last 6 months have worked regular hours, that without significant adjustment can continue.
This document includes a step by step process to follow in assessing and communicating if your casuals should be offered permanent employment, and template letters required to approve or refuse casual conversion.
