Employers

For all Industrial Relations matters including award rates, employer obligations, public holidays and allowances contact the free Australian Apprenticeships NT Industrial Relations Advisory Helpline on 1300 302 675.

There are a number of priority groups that Australian Apprenticeships NT is encouraging employers to consider when reviewing their staffing requirements. Students doing School-based Apprenticeships, Indigenous Australians, mature age workers and people with disabilities are often overlooked by employers but represent a large pool of potential employees. There are also a number of support initiatives and incentives that employers may be eligible for by taking on people from these groups.
