The University is committed to ensuring that our casual staff are paid for the work they are expected to undertake; that is, their agreed working hours and any other activity that their supervisor has requested they carry out in addition to those agreed hours.
As part of our ongoing efforts to ensure our casual staff have been correctly paid for their past work at the University, we have developed a complaint and review mechanism for casual staff to submit claims where they believe they have been underpaid.
The purpose of this form is for former casual staff to submit historical payment claims where they believe they have been underpaid, including where they:
- were requested to undertake additional work but did not submit a timesheet or receive payment;
- submitted a timesheet and believe it has been incorrectly processed; or
- wish to seek a review of a claim that has been rectified as part of the previous casual pay adjustment.
You can lodge a claim up to six years from the work being performed or casual pay adjustment being made.
Prior to completing this form, please refer to the FAQs and Claim Checklist provided on the Casual Pay Review webpage and have all information available for completion.
You must submit a separate claim for each different department.
If you have another query outside of this scope of this process, please use the About/Contact Us on the La Trobe University Website.
A staff member or former staff member can be represented by the National Tertiary Education Union (NTEU) or another chosen representative throughout the claim process.
