Your workers compensation policy is tied to a state, not to a person. For anyone working outside Australia, the honest question is which scheme would actually respond.
Can you onboard contractors through an EOR? Yes. The ATO is now matching your payroll data against what the fund received, and the letters have started.
The difference between staffing and a BPO is one clause: who is allowed to hire your own team member. Treasury's non-compete bill makes it worth reading.
Victoria said work from home would be protected in law from 1 September. On 10 September the Legislative Council sent the Bill to a select committee instead, and there is still no right and no obligation.
The ATO says contractors paid mainly for their labour are eligible for super guarantee. The exemption is for non-resident employees working outside Australia. Residency and location decide it, not the contract.
A record 6.9 per cent of Australians now hold more than one job. That familiarity is doing damage to how founders read the contractor test, and the ATO's list never mentioned other clients.
