During and after the COVID-19 pandemic, Australian companies followed the rest of the globe in offering flexible working arrangements in the form of remote work or work from home allowances to their employees. There has also been an increase in remote-first and remote-friendly companies. Although many companies are implementing remote policies, it is still not compulsory for an employer to offer remote working to their employees.
Australia has not yet introduced any legal protections that give an employee the right to work from home. There are some requirements listed under the Fair Work Act that allow some employees based on their circumstances to request a flexible working arrangement from their employer. These circumstances though only really cover caregivers, people with a disability, a parent to school aged children, over the age of 55 or are experiencing a recognised hardship like family violence.
Your business can easily hire employees in Australia without opening a local entity. We handle local employment law, complex tax regulations, and international payroll in 180+ countries worldwide. All you need to do is focus on your business.
Australia is a great country for remote work. Australia has widespread high speed internet available in the major cities and is slowly opening new co-working spaces for remote companies and employees to rent. The city of Melbourne was recently found to be one of the best cities for remote working in the world.
There are a few options to hire remote employees in Australia. You can either set up a subsidiary or foreign branch in Australia to easily hire employees locally. If you go either of these routes you will need to understand follow Australia’s strict regime of employment laws and regulations. The next option is using an PEO/EOR such as Horizons, who can help hire employees on an ongoing, open ended employment contract. Horizons can help onboard and manage your Australian remote employees. Horizons also offer labour contract drafting services as well that include all required minimum mandates under Australian employment laws.
