What the source reports · 来源报道

Fair Work guidance sets new health-professional classifications from 1 October and pay increases from the first pay period starting on or after that date for covered employees.

Fair Work 指引规定，自10月1日起采用新的医疗专业人员分类，适用员工从该日或之后开始的首个工资周期起加薪。

ANND perspective · ANND 观点

ANND perspective: a covered practice should check qualifications, duties and the relevant pay guide, then reconcile payroll and acquisition budgets. Confirm the actual pay-period start rather than assuming every employee changes rate on the same payday.

ANND 观点：适用该裁定的诊所应核对资质、职责及相关工资指引，再核对工资支付和收购预算。应确认实际工资周期开始日期，不能假定所有员工都在同一个发薪日调整工资。
