Curtin pay review

About this project

As you may be aware, many universities have identified issues with how their employees have been paid. In light of this, Curtin has proactively commenced a pay review to ensure our employees have been and continue to be paid correctly.

Curtin’s pay review will initially focus on current and former casual employees dating back to 2015 who are covered by the Curtin University Academic, Professional and General Staff Agreement and the Curtin University Early Childhood Centre Enterprise Agreement. It will involve a review of our payroll, pay related systems and payment practices.

We take our obligations to comply with workplace laws very seriously and have engaged experienced external advisors in relation to the review. In the event we identify issues requiring remediation, we will engage with the Fair Work Ombudsman, and we will ensure that employees are paid any amounts which may be owing, with interest. 

Given the size of our workforce and our varied activities, this is a complex piece of work and we must take the time necessary to build a complete picture. It is anticipated the work will take at least 12-18 months to complete. 

If you are a past employee of Curtin who worked at the University during the review period, you can complete the Contact Form on this website to ensure we have the correct contact details for you. This will enable us to get in contact with you in the event that you are impacted by this review.

Further information will be provided on this site as the review progresses.  In the meantime, if you have any specific queries related to the review, please email Curtin’s Payroll Assurance Contact Team at payrollassurance@curtin.edu.au.
