General:

Apprentices and Trainees:

NOTE: Each time an apprentice progresses into the next stage of their career you will need to update their employment tag within their profile in Tanda. This is because Tanda does not automatically increase wages based on time periods.

📜 11.1 Casual loading

Casual employees will be paid the percentage of the ordinary hourly rate prescribed in clauses 24.1 and 24.2 (which includes a 25% casual loading) for the classification in which they are employed.

Under the Registered and Licensed Award casuals are entitled to a loaded rate at the multiplier of 1.25x. Casual loading in Tanda is applied using the multiplier method.

In the Employee Profile in Tanda the casual rate is expressed in the Monday to Friday pay rate with the base hourly rate showing the rate without the loading added. This is demonstrated in the below image:

The base hourly rate is always expressed as 1.25x on the timesheet and, where applicable, penalty rates are expressed with the additional casual loading amount.

If employees are paid a base rate higher than the Award Rate, simply enter the employees base rate in the highlighted field below. This will override the rate in the system, and penalty rates and overtime will be calculated from this new rate.

For further information please see the Pay Above Template article.

When setting up the employee’s profile please ensure their date of birth has correctly been entered. Tanda will automatically pull this age and apply the correct rate.

For example, if an employee is 16 years of age Tanda will automatically apply the correct rate for the classification. Please see the below:

Once the employee classification has been set up, the rules applicable to that worker will now apply on the employee’s Timesheet when a shift is worked. So, for example, an 9:00am to 5:00pm shift on a Monday will demonstrate the ordinary hours worked on this day for a Casual employee as per below:

The same will occur if an overtime or penalty rate applies. For example, the below shows that when over 12+ hours are worked in a shift by a Casual employee. A rate of 1.50x is paid for the first two hours of overtime and a rate of 2.00x thereafter:

Some examples of the penalties and overtime rules that are applicable under the Registered and Licensed Clubs Award 2020 are:

Weekend Work:

📜 24.1 An employee other than a maintenance and horticultural employee performing work on the following days will be paid the following percentage of the ordinary hourly rate for the relevant classification:

Tanda will automatically apply the weekend penalties to the timesheet when they are applicable.

Public Holidays:

📜 24.3(b) Employees other than maintenance or horticultural employees who work on a prescribed holiday may, by agreement, work at 150% of the ordinary hourly rate...

Tanda will automatically apply the public holiday penalty on days that have been configured to be a public holiday.

For further information on configuring public holidays please see Configure public holidays regions.

Missed Meal Breaks:

📜 17.1(a) If an employee, including a casual employee, is required to work more than 5 hours in a day the employee must be given an unpaid meal break of at least 30 minutes. The break must be given between 1.5 and 5 hours of the employee starting work.

📜 17.2 If an employee is not given a meal break in accordance with clause 17.1 the employer must pay the employee 150% of the ordinary hourly rate from the end of 5 hours until either the meal break is given or the shift ends.

This is a cumulative penalty that will apply in addition to any other penalties that are applicable when a meal break is taken early, late or not at all.

Part Time Employees

Under the Award Part Time employees require a minimum engagement of 3 hours per day the below clause:

📜 10.7 However, a part-time employee:

(b) must not be rostered to work in excess of 12 or fewer than 3 hours in any one day

The minimum engagement outlined above has been built into the Managed Template to buffer the time worked if it is less than 3 hours.

Please see the below example a minimum engagement applying for a Part Time employee:

Casual Employees

Under the Award there are three different minimum engagements outlined for Casual employees:

📜 11.5 A casual employee (other than a casual employee engaged solely as a bingo caller, assistant bingo caller or fitness instructor) is entitled to a minimum payment for 2 hours’ work on each occasion that they are required to attend work. A casual employee engaged solely as a bingo caller, or an assistant bingo caller is entitled to a minimum payment for 3 hours’ work. A casual employee engaged as a fitness instructor is entitled to a minimum payment for 1 hour of work.

In the Registered and Licensed Clubs Award (General) Managed Template two of the above outlined minimum engagements have been set up to buffer automatically.

If a casual employee is entitled to a 2 hour minimum engagement they should be classified as a Casual in the employee profile.

If a casual employee is classified as fitness instructor they should be classified as a Casual Fitness Instructor in the employee profile.

Please see the below example a minimum engagement applying for a Casual Fitness Instructor employee:

Public Holidays

The above minimum engagement on a public holiday will automatically apply in the timesheet for a Full Time or Part Time employee if they have worked less than 4 hours.

In Tanda award tags are usually applied to a timesheet in order to apply a manual overtime rule or override an automatic overtime rule.

Under the Registered and Licensed Clubs Award (General) Managed Template these tags are:

RDO Worked:

📜 22.3 (e) rostered day off: 200% of the ordinary hourly rate of pay for all time worked, with a minimum payment of 4 hours.

For more information on applying award tags to several employees at once please see Bulk Categorised Staff.

You must first ensure the tag is applied to the employee’s profile. To do this, go to Workforce > Staff > (Employee Name) > Payroll. Under ‘Allowances and Penalties’, select the appropriate shift tag.

Please see the below example where the ‘RDO Worked’ shift tag has been added to the profile:

To show these on the Timesheets, you must ensure you have ‘Award Tags’ turned on. This will give you a second drop-box on the time sheets, for you to select the correct shift tag to apply to the shift.

To do this, head to Settings > Timesheets > Show Advanced Settings and select the box after ‘Show an extra dropdown to adjust shift cost (Award Tag)’, as follows:

Now you should see the shift tags added to the profile as drop down options next to the timesheet, as shown below:

Allowances pursuant to the Registered and Licensed Clubs Award (General) Managed Template have been built into the Tanda system. These are divided into two key types - Automatic Allowances and Manual Allowances.

An automatic allowance will apply to the timesheet without any manual application. The automatic allowances available are:

The Weekday Penalty allowances will automatically pull through to the timesheet if the time conditions of the allowances are met per Clause 24.4:

📜 24.4 Late and early work penalty

(a) Employees other than maintenance or horticultural employees will be entitled to the following additional penalty for work performed at the following times:

For the First Aid Attendant, Manager Laundry Allowance and Personal Equipment Allowance to automatically apply to an employee’s timesheet you will need to add the allowance to their ‘Profile’.

To do this, go to Workforce > Staff > (Employee Name) > Payroll. Under ‘Additional tags’ search for the applicable allowance, for example the ‘First Aid Attendant’ and then add this to the employee’s profile. Then click ‘Update Employee Details’.

The allowance will then automatically apply to the employee’s timesheet when applicable.

Please see the below example:

Some allowances will not apply unless specifically added onto the day’s timesheet.

These allowances are set up to manual as Tanda as it is not predictable when these allowances would be applicable. The manual allowances under the award are:

To apply an allowance, go to the relevant employee’s timesheet and click on the blue ‘+ Add’ button under the start and finish times as shown below:

Then, from the dropdown, select the manual allowance you wish to apply.

Please note that any applicable automatic allowances will appear in the drop down however they cannot be edited.

Enter the number of units you wish to apply, then press the ‘Save Allowances’ button to apply it to the timesheet. Tanda will calculate the total cost of the allowance for you.

Once saved, the allowance will now apply to the day’s timesheet.

Repeat this process for each day and instance that a manual allowance is needed.
