What OH&S training do I need to complete?

To best ensure that you stay safe at work, we require you to complete a short online OH&S induction prior to you commencing your assignment. Detailed instructions on how to access and complete this induction will be emailed to you.

When do I complete my timesheet?

• Your timesheets need to be submitted by 6pm on Friday (if you work weekend hours please submit your timesheet when your work day is complete).

• Once you have submitted your timesheet, your Reporting Manager will be emailed a digital copy.

• Timesheets must be approved by 5pm Monday.

• Meeting these deadlines will ensure you are paid on time.

My manager is not available to approve my timesheet, what do I need to do?

When you start your assignment, your manager will advise Aspect of a Secondary Timesheet Approver - someone else at the organisation, who can approve your timesheet if your Reporting Manager (Primary Approver) is away. ​

​

In the event that your Reporting Manager and Secondary Timesheet Approver are unavailable to authorise your timesheet by 5pm on Monday, please contact your Aspect Consultant with an alternative approver no later than 10am on Monday.
