THE PROBLEM
Hiring Shouldn't Be the Riskiest Thing You Do This Month
Most school owners piece contracts together from old templates. Every one of these is a Fair Work or child safety problem waiting to happen:
◆Paying a junior the wrong rate after their birthday
◆No casual loading, or the wrong weekend rate
◆Forgetting the Casual Employment Information Statement
◆No child safe policy or code of conduct signed
◆Starting someone before their WWCC or blue card is through
◆Chasing bank, super and TFN details for weeks
◆Nobody told them how rosters, timesheets and pay work
◆A 16-year-old with no parent signature on file
The award and child safety rules don't change because you're a small school. The paperwork should be the easy part.

Founding-member release: we're arranging an independent review of our templates by an Australian employment lawyer. When it's done, every new pack uses the reviewed templates automatically, and if anything material changes we'll email you so you can rebuild your existing packs for free.
Bonus: every staff member you build a pack for gets free access to our Child Safety Staff Training course (launching January 2027).
FAQ
Common Questions
Which award does this use?+
The Fitness Industry Award 2020 [MA000094], which expressly covers martial arts centres and dance centres. Rates are updated each year after the Fair Work Commission's Annual Wage Review.
Which states does it cover?+
All Australian states and territories. The child safe policy, clearances (WWCC, blue card and so on), child employment rules and helplines all change to match your state.
Can I edit the documents?+
On the Growth and Unlimited plans, every document comes as an editable Word file plus a print-ready PDF. A Single Pack comes as print-ready PDFs.
What if I'm employing a teenager?+
That's exactly what it's built for. It applies junior pay rates, adds a parent or guardian signature, school-first hours and supervision rules, and flags state rules such as Victoria's child employment licence.
Yes. The builder is updated every year for the 1 July award increases. Yearly plans always use the latest rates. If you opt in, we'll also email you before each employee's next pay rise is due.
No. It's a document-building tool that produces general-information templates from your answers. Martial Arts Mentors is not a law firm. If you need certainty for your situation, have the pack reviewed by an employment lawyer before signing.
Who sees my employee's details?+
The documents are built in your browser. We receive only a summary to email your pack and send reminders. Bank, tax and medical details are filled in on paper by the employee and stay with you.
