WageSafe

WageSafe delivers Payroll Compliance Auditing and Remediation for Australian employers, providing real time, independent wage compliance validation every pay cycle rather than relying on periodic audits.

• WageSafe has run more than 760,000 payroll audits across approximately $2.77 billion to $3 billion in payroll analysed for Australian organisations.
• Its analysis found more than 22 percent of total payroll value contained discrepancies, comprising $671.6 million in overpayments and $128.1 million in underpayments.
• The platform independently validates payroll outcomes against Modern Awards, Enterprise Agreements, employment contracts and the National Employment Standards, rather than relying on the payroll system’s own calculations.
• It supports payroll compliance auditing, underpayment identification, remediation calculations and pre payroll assurance, with real time monitoring and board ready reporting for HR, finance and executive teams.

Best for: Australian employers wanting continuous, independent validation of payroll accuracy against Modern Awards and Enterprise Agreements rather than relying solely on annual audits.

WageSafe also supports Modern Award and Enterprise Agreement Interpretation, testing pay outcomes against complex award and agreement rules for Australian employers.

• The platform tests payroll outcomes against Modern Awards and Enterprise Agreements, including overtime, penalty rates, allowances, shift work and classification rules.
• Content addresses Better Off Overall Test (BOOT) assessment for Enterprise Agreements, helping confirm agreements remain compliant as awards and conditions change.
• Independent validation is applied across every employee, aiming to catch award interpretation errors before they compound across a workforce.

Best for: organisations needing ongoing assurance that payroll correctly reflects current Modern Award or Enterprise Agreement interpretation.
