We have prepared some guidelines to help you navigate the Fair Work Australia guidelines. Fact sheets on unpaid work with specific examples can be found here. For specific industries, please see fact sheets for Hair & Beauty industry, Hospitality industry, Print & Broadcast Media industry, or Professional Services industry.
Internships / work experience roles can be listed under any of our ad types: Standard, Premium, or Premium Plus.
