5.8 PAYMENT OF WAGES

5.8.1 All wages shall be paid in full in the employer's time at least once in each fortnight. Casual work may, by mutual consent, be paid in this manner or at the termination of each engagement.

Payment may be made by use of one of the following methods:

(a) Cash;

(b) Cheque;

(c) Electronic funds transfer (EFT) directly into the employee's account in any financial institution nominated by the employee, which has the facility and without cost to the employee.

5.8.2 The employer must be prepared to make some mutually acceptable alternative arrangement for any employee normally paid by EFT if that employee suffers any hardship through that method of payment as a result of changed circumstances, such as a transfer to a new location.

5.8.3 Where EFT is used, an employee's wage must be available to the employee prior to the normal ceasing time on the recognised pay day.

5.8.4 Where hours are worked in a work cycle exceeding 7 consecutive days, the employer and the employee may agree that payment will be made for average hours worked or actual hours worked in a pay period.
