Employment Law/Unfair Dismissal FAQ - My ex-employer has not paid my outstanding entitlements. Can you help me?

Date: March 04, 2011

Q. I recently left my employer and they have not paid my outstanding entitlements including holidays. When I investigated the matter I found that there was also some outstanding superannuation. Can you help me?

A. Yes. You have a number of statutory entitlements which include holiday pay which is specifically protected by statute. The same applies to superannuation and where your employer fails to pay it then he can be held accountable at law. In your circumstances retain a legal representative to ensure that you obtain the monies owing to you.
