As your business grows, you’ll need to expand your team. While hiring staff is crucial for business growth, it can also be daunting. To assist you, we have compiled our top tips to help you navigate the hiring process.
Identify Your Future Goals
Before starting the hiring process, consider where you envision your business in the future and identify the goals you need to achieve to reach that point. Seek candidates who will fit your business at these future milestones to help achieve your goals.
Look Beyond Resumes
While impressive resumes can indicate a candidate’s qualifications, it’s important to consider more than just a candidates resume. Skills can be taught, but a shared vision is invaluable. Look for candidates who align with your business’s values and are eager to grow with your business.
Understand Legal Requirements
Before hiring a new employee, it’s crucial to understand your rights and responsibilities under Australian employment law. The minimum terms and conditions of employment come from awards, registered agreements, contracts of employment, and the National Employment Standards (NES).
Agree on Working Hours
Employers and employees should work together to agree on working hours and rostering in advance. Clear communication and planning help ensure that both parties are satisfied with the work schedule, promoting a healthy work-life balance.
Determine Appropriate Pay
To determine the correct pay for a new employee, you need to decide on their employment status—whether they will be a full-time, part-time, or casual employee. This decision will help determine their rate of pay.
