Award Interpretation and Enterprise Agreement Issues

Law Tram’s Workplace Entitlements Consultation simplifies the process by connecting you with licensed Australian lawyers who can offer tailored legal advice specific to your situation. This free, fully online, and obligation-free service ensures you receive expert guidance every step of the way.

Not Sure If You’re Being Paid Correctly Under Your Award or Agreement?

Modern awards and enterprise agreements set the minimum pay rates and working conditions for millions of employees across Australia. But they can be complex, and it’s not always clear which award applies, what classification you fall under, or whether your current pay meets legal standards.

Misunderstanding or misapplying award or agreement entitlements can result in underpayment, disputes, and employer penalties.

Law Tram connects you with lawyers who can help you understand your entitlements, clarify the correct award or agreement, and take action if you’re being paid incorrectly.
