Peter Vitalie
News and interviews on Peter Vitalie including trends, features, blogs and community conversations from an Australian business perspective.
An employee wants to work part-time. Help!
It is important to realise that while we have new rules, it is now not a given right for employees to demand and receive part-time work.
I want my employee in the office, not at home. Help!
Giving a flat out no will make the employee resentful and even less productive.
My employee is too old and risky. How do I move him on?
Carelessness is not necessarily age related: just ask my teenage sons.
The union is at the door. Do I have to meet them?
If there is a request for enterprise bargaining you need to think about your strategy carefully.
Enforced Christmas leave to grow
Companies enforce leave to crack down on the so called “Christmas working holiday” whereby staff appear at work but intersperse the day with shopping, web surfing and generally taking it easy.
Can we employ commission only staff or is it illegal?
Every employee that falls within the Federal system - and that's everyone in Victoria - must receive at least the Federal minimum wage.
Staff members & their soapboxes
The workplace is not the forum for staff members to voice their opinions or personal beliefs - from breastfeeding babies to religion.
The union is at the door. Do I have to meet them?
Ask the union to put in writing exactly what it is they wish to discuss - and not talking to them until they do.
Go-away money on the rise
The Rudd government insisted their IR new system would reduce go-away money. But when I hear what lawyers are advising clients, I have my doubts.
A shonky web developer is ripping me off. Help!
Don't terminate or suspend the project without first obtaining legal advice about your options.
Our web developer has behaved totally unprofessionally. What are my legal rights?
