unpressurised.

Without even knowing your circumstances, you are not a "contractor" and any "contract" you signed is invalid.

"his excuse is that we are employed as sole contractors and do not fall under the award"
Rubbish!

You are either a casual employee or part time employee, subject to the Award terms and conditions.

"and occasionally forced to fudge figures to fake a day off"
And you're an idiot, personally liable for your breaches of CAO48 and do not deserve to hold a CPL!
  1. Use the Search function - the subject has been covered numerous times before;
  2. Contact Fair Work Australia;
  3. Get a real job.
I suspect this is a wind up. No one could be that stupid.........
