The core content of labor (movement) law
In Australia, the working conditions of employees are determined by:

(1) Federal agreements, state agreements and registration treaties;

(2) the specific terms of the employment contract;

(3) Legislation on conditions of employment.

90% of employment in Australia is determined by agreement. The employment contract cannot exclude the terms of the agreement, and the employee who is employed in accordance with the agreement can obtain additional benefits from the employment contract. The agreement generally provides for minimum working hours, overtime, sick leave, expenses and termination of employment, but usually does not include the employer.

Australian law severely restricts the dismissal of workers, and business owners must comply with a set of rules when laying off employees. Both employers are subject to the contractual notice period for termination of employment. Most agreements require a minimum notice period of one week or one week of compensatory pay, or provide for different notice periods depending on the length of employment. The required notice period for middle and senior management and veteran workers can be as long as three months or even one year. Accordingly, the employer will also require the employee to give notice of resignation in advance or request corresponding compensation.

[Compensation] The remuneration conditions of employees are jointly determined by the workers' Agreement and the collective bargaining agreement. The salaries of managers, administrators and professionals can be determined by the individual agreements they sign with the business and by market demand. Employees' compensation is generally monetary, with other benefits included for higher-ranking employees. Regulations on compensation usually include minimum wage, overtime pay, severance pay, pensions, etc.
Fair Work Australia has issued its 2013/14 financial year pay rulings, increasing the weekly wage rate for 1.5 million low earners by $15.8. From 1 July 2013, the new national minimum wage will be $622.2 per week, up from $606.4 per week. In 2013, the Fair Work Commission awarded a pay rise of $17.1.

Under Australian law, employers are required to contribute to an employee's pension, and generally the minimum contribution is 9% of the employee's wage income. There are also many companies that pay more than this percentage for their employees' pensions and give employees higher benefits.

Rules for foreigners to work there
According to the Australian Department of Immigration, if an Australian company or an overseas company is unable to recruit the required labor force in the Australian domestic labor market, or is unable to obtain the required labor force through its own training programs, and has to hire workers from overseas to work in Australia, the company can sponsor the foreign worker and apply for a temporary business visa for the foreign worker.

Foreign workers who need to work in Australia for three months to four years can apply for a long-term temporary business visa, known as the 457 visa. The necessary procedures for such visas include: sponsorship by the employer company, nomination by the employer company, and visa application by the nominee.
