Updates to timesheets for Casual Professional and Professional Research Staff
From 20 July 2024, the University will be introducing changes to timesheets in the MyAurion system for casual professional and professional research staff to ensure we are meeting our compliance obligations regarding minimum periods of engagement and payment.
When completing your timesheet each fortnight and recording your hours worked, you will now be required to select your employee category.
By selecting the relevant employee category, the minimum engagement will be applied automatically to each engagement as per the table below.
For further information, go to the Casual Professional Employees webpage.
