   Full-Time Work in Australia for foreign students, are responsible to the other 50% of the job market. It is considered full time a work which is not less than 38 hours per week and in case the employers needs extra working time from the employee he will have to pay extra hours. Today with the new legislation, this situation can be combined from both parties. Example: I contract you to work 40 hours from Tuesday to Sunday and I don't want to pay you double for the Sundays (usually 50% extra). It is take it, negotiate it or leave it. The legislation also allows to contract the person in first 3 months as casual, and if the worker corresponds with the expectations, then he or she will became Full-Time. Some people starting as casual later does not want to became Full-Time, as their wages will decrease but will be able to receive all the entitlements. All types of work in Australia are taxed as income. Note: Full Time workers - Australian workers enjoy 15 minutes of break in the morning, 30 minutes for lunch, and other 15 minutes in the afternoon. Smoko Break are called the small breaks. The name “Smoko” comes from smoke, or the time for a cigarette. In industrial zones there are food Vans selling takeaway sandwiches and snacks and they are called Smoko Vans (they ring the bell announcing their arrival).
