  • the name of the agreement or award as recorded by the Fair Work Commission, where applicable. The salary level or occupation group that applies to the nomination from the corresponding award must also be included
  • a comparison of the duties, number of hours worked and level of experience of the current employee and the nominee to show that the salary and other terms are comparable
  • if there is no relevant agreement or award, or you are paying your Australian employees above the award rate, provide copies of relevant employment contracts and pay slips for this employee.
• where there is no equivalent worker, agreement or award:
  • provide at least two of the following:
    • salary reports or remuneration surveys from a reputable organisation (for example, Australian Bureau of Statistics, Jobs and Skills Australia Occupation and Industry Profiles)
    • information from unions or employer associations in Tasmania
    • advertisements placed in the last six months for similar positions by other Tasmanian employers.
