JOB OPPORTUNITIES IN BRISBANE, AUSTRALIA IN 2017






Brisbane is the capital and most popular city in the Australian States of Queensland. The city is in the southeast corner of Queensland and centred along the Brisbane River, and its eastern suburbs line the shores of Moreton Bay. Brisbane has an extensive transportation network within the city,public transport is provided by bus, rail and ferry services.
WAGES AND HOURS
Once you have an employment offer in Brisbane, you’ll be interested in the local working conditions. First, you should find out if your position is included in a so-called “award”, ex. an industry agreement. Such an agreement describes most of your employment conditions in detail. 
The nationwide minimum wage amounts to 15.96 AUD per hour, and full-time employees work 38 hours a week. However, this does not apply to management positions and executive jobs, where you are often expected to stay on longer to complete a project, prepare a meeting, etc.
All employees can work additional hours if this is both necessary for the company and reasonable for the staff. In most cases, this also means overtime pay or compensatory time off.

PUBLIC HOLIDAYS AND ANNUAL LEAVE

While working in Brisbane, you are legally entitled to 4 weeks of annual leave as well as 10 days of paid personal leave (e.g. due to illness). Many Australian companies grant their staff 25 days off, so you have some leverage in negotiating your contract. Furthermore, there are eight national public holidays and a couple of holidays in each state or territory,example Labour Day in all of Queensland and an extra day off for all Brisbanites on occasion of the Royal Queensland Show.
Expat parents will be happy to hear that each member of an employee partner has a right to 12 months of (unpaid) parental leave, including same-sex partners and adoptive parents. The only condition is that you have been with your employer for at least twelve months.
For every baby born after January 01, 2011, the Australian government also grants a full eighteen weeks of parental allowance at the rate of the current minimum wage. As a former full-time employee turned stay-at-home parent, you’ll thus receive 2425.92 AUD per month.
