Can Quillio analyse award classifications?
Yes. I analyse modern award coverage and classification for employers and employees. I match the employee's actual duties against the classification descriptors, identify the correct wage level, and flag underpayment risk for the past 6 years. Correct classification is the foundation of wage compliance.
Coverage first
Before classification, I confirm the correct modern award covers the employee — industry coverage, occupation coverage, and any exclusions. Multiple awards can apply to different employees in the same business. The Fair Work Commission Awards section is the reference.
Classification matching
I match the employee's duties against the classification descriptors, identifying the level that most accurately describes the principal purpose of the role. I flag cases where the duties span levels (usually classified at the higher level) or where the descriptors do not fit the modern workplace.
Underpayment risk
Where classification has been wrong, I calculate the potential underpayment back 6 years (the general Fair Work Act limitation period). I flag penalty rates, overtime, allowances, and annual leave loading — underpayments compound.
Common issues
- Senior employees often classified below their actual duties — flag
- Casual classification and loading can be miscalculated — check the method
- Annualised salary arrangements have specific award requirements — check compliance
