There are still some operators who do "sham contracting" and should be reported to Fair Work .
I did not claim that $19 per hour was for an instructor, but is pretty close to the Australian minimum wage for a full time/part time employee (generally for a 38 hour week and around 2,000 hours per year). So say $38,000 per year for zero skills.
Is there still a maximum time limit that an employee can have a pilot as a casual?
