This is a draft of terms you type. It does not insert an at-will, non-compete, arbitration, termination, or probation clause.

Choosing a country opens that draft and keeps what you have typed.

This draft does not replace the Fair Work Information Statement, choose an award, or calculate the National Employment Standards.

Type a name only if you already know it. This page does not look up an award.

Leave this blank unless you are writing a figure you have chosen. This page does not insert a statutory minimum.

Clauses you leave blank are omitted. No standard clause is filled in.

How to fill this in

The Fair Work Information Statement is a separate document. Casual employees can also need the Casual Employment Information Statement, and fixed-term employees the Fixed Term Contract Information Statement.

If you already know an award or enterprise agreement name, type it. This page does not look one up, and it does not check that the terms meet the National Employment Standards.

Some private-sector employers in Western Australia are outside the national system. This draft does not decide that.

Choose A4 or US Letter before you download. Empty pay, dates, hours, and leave stay empty. Clauses you leave blank are omitted. The PDF does not add an at-will, non-compete, arbitration, termination, or probation clause.

FAQ

Does this replace the Fair Work Information Statement?

No. The statement is a separate document that must be given before, or as soon as practicable after, the employee starts.

Will it choose my award?

No. Type a name only if you already know it. The page does not look up an award or an enterprise agreement.

Which currency does it use?

Australian dollars. Pay and leave stay blank until you type them.
