The Fair Work Ombudsman has released a new app aimed at tackling the persistent problem of underpayment of young workers and migrant workers around the country.
The 'Record My Hours' app equips workers with a record of the time they spend at their workplace by using geofencing technology to register when they arrive at work and when they leave.
Fair Work Ombudsman Natalie James says the app will be a valuable back-up for workers when employers failed to meet their record-keeping obligations
She is encouraging businesses to make use of the app which also allows rosters and work related notifications to be sent .
