Work culture

Australian work culture is relaxed, egalitarian, and values directness. Work-life balance is a priority, and flexible arrangements including remote work are widely accepted. The tech industry is particularly progressive in offering distributed work options.

Hiring notes

The distinction between employees and contractors is strictly regulated by the Fair Work Act. Superannuation (retirement contributions) is mandatory for employees. International employers typically need an EOR or local entity. Australia has a relatively high minimum wage.
