Well this could be embarrassing, I could be one of those rogue employers. happy to test it. Firstly I don't do the books myself, I have a really good administrator who does all that and knows all the employment laws way better than me. But here's my arrangement. Firstly the casuals I employ do it because they still want to fly really nice equipment and probably wouldn't care if they didn't get paid, the renewals and company jaunt around the resorts would be enough. I don't pay them for that but do cover all expenses and costs. That said I don't want to be a rogue employer taking advantage of anyone.

To my knowledge as per our arrangement, I pay $500 a day plus $50 per flight hour over 6 flight hours, plus any overnight or incidental costs, normally provided.

No long service leave, or any leave at all actually
No super payments that I am aware of. I'll check on that one.
Tax is deducted.
Indemnity Insurance included and paid by the company
Workcover included and paid by the company.
Casual loading or any reference to any award has not been considered.

OMG!!!! I might unintentionally be one of those dodgy operators. How does that stack up against an award.
