What rules apply at a workplace with fewer than 300 workers?

  • Standing orders are required at three hundred or more workers, so a smaller workplace need not have them IR s. 28(1).
  • The Codes still apply to you: wages CW s. 5, an appointment letter OSH s. 6(1)(f), and the grievance committee at twenty or more workers IR s. 4(1).
  • Notice, probation, casual leave and retirement age then come from your appointment letter and any State law. Retrenchment has its own rule at any size IR s. 70.
