Hiring an assistant/ apprentice - rules and regulations

[ameerat42]

Hi Terry.
Will she be get any monetary payment? If not, then I suppose you're trying to tease out the insurance question.
Would your company/broker be able to help with that one? I have no real idea, but I would think that while on the premises,
she would be covered. I don't know about off-site assignments, though.
Am.

The intent is to give her monetary payment, but were trying to establish whether by doing so, she comes under the employment regulations of australia (weve only recently moved here ourselves so its all new to us)
