Hi lumamelzem

The following might be helpful

Overtime

Overtime is often defined in an award or agreement as time worked in excess of 38 hours or outside of ordinary hours. It could be defined differently in a relevant award or agreement so you should check to see what applies to you.

For example, if an employee does not normally work at weekends or late at night as part of their ordinary hours of work, and are required to work at these times, they may be entitled to be paid extra money. Overtime work is often paid at a higher rate of pay. This will be detailed in the relevant award or agreement.

Sometimes overtime entitlements don’t apply to part-time and casual workers until after they have worked the same number of hours as a full-time worker.

In other cases, instead of receiving overtime payments, employees may be able to take time off to make up for the extra time you have worked. This is called “time in lieu”. Check your award or agreement to see what applies in your case.

Overtime entitlements in modern awards are not covered by the model transitional provisions. Therefore, overtime entitlements under these awards commenced operation on 1 January 2010. For details of your overtime entitlements, find your modern award.
