Guest Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Hi, I need a bit of advise. If I am working for a farmer on a casual basis 5 days a week for 10 weeks, but some days I am only required to work for 2 hrs, does this 2 hr day still count toward the 88 days? I am struggling to find a definite answer online... thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raul Senise Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 From Policy: "Under policy, three months is taken to mean 88 days, which is the shortest possible combination of months in a calendar year. One full day of work is defined as having worked the minimum number of hours considered a standard day by the particular industry in which the applicant is employed. Generally, the Australian working week is 35 to 40 hours, comprising 7 to 8 hours of work each day. Individual employers cannot set a smaller period of time than the industry standard to satisfy the specified work requirement." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mbarrow93 Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Hi I know I am super late to this but did you ever get a definite answer? I am working on a farm fruit picking at the moment and we can only work as many hours as there is fruit to pick so some days we only work a few hours. The guys at the farm said this still counts as a day? Any response would be greatly appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
