Case Study from the Interior Design Industry

12 April 2023

Now Actually provides expert advice on Awards, employee benefits, and casual conversion to give business owners peace of mind that they are compliant with the law.

The Challenge

  • Change management – wanted to offer all contractors the opportunity to become casual employees with the business; and 
  • To set up internal HR documents 

The Solution

  • Set up HR employment contracts, HR documentation, policies, and procedures
  • Conducted Award research and interpretation as well as advised on comparison between Contractor vs. Casual 
  • Provided advice on HR best practice

The Impact

  • Has helped ensure that the employees are receiving entitlements and benefits in line with the award 
  • Offers employees an opportunity to be given casual conversion down the track with NPS 
  • Has helped the business secure staff and understand their obligations as an employer within Australia 
  • Has streamlined the work engagement process and reduced contractor invoices 

“When we first engaged with Now Actually, our business had a number of Contractors working within it. By working with Now Actually they were able to determine that our Contractors where in fact Casual Employees. Now Actually helped us transfer them across to new contracts and created the appropriate policies and procedures that we needed to support our growing business.”
