Australian Employment Agreement Template for an Allied Health Assistant working in a speech pathology private practice (Part-time)

Description

Now, no-one wants to spend money on expensive lawyers. And, we think we can provide a better ‘base precedent’ without costing an arm and a leg. So we’ve drafted this employment agreement template (in PDF and Word formats), specifically for use when employing Allied Health Assistants to work in Australian speech pathology private practices on a part-time basis.

We’ve designed the template to be consistent with:

• Fair Work Australia template contracts;
• the Health Professionals and Support Services Award 2020 (MA000027); and
• the National Employment Standards in the Fair Work Act (Cth) 2009; and
• the Delegation of Tasks to Speech Pathology Support Personnel in Speech Pathology Australia’s ‘Parameters of Practise: Guidelines for Delegation, Collaboration and Teamwork in Speech Pathology Practice’ (2016).

As always, we recommend you seek legal advice about areas of concern – e.g. clauses specific to your business needs.
