Salary underpayments

An employee (or former employee) who considers they have been underpaid may request a salary review. Where it is established that an underpayment has occurred, consistent with the Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth), the employee (or former employee) will be paid arrears for any underpayments that occurred in the 6 years prior to the date the salary review was requested.

The school(s) or work location where the employee (or former employee) was employed at the time the underpayment occurred is responsible for meeting the cost of any retrospective salary payments that are made.
