Project details
Hiring your first employee or contractor in Australia isn’t just about finding the right person, it’s about getting the setup right from the start.
In this project, I help you understand whether you need an employee or contractor, what it will cost, and how to set it up properly.
I’ll also guide you through key compliance requirements under Fair Work, including required registrations, basic WHS considerations, and the essential policies you need in place.
You’ll get clear, practical advice tailored to your business, without overcomplicating HR or implementing systems you don’t need yet.

About Dee
First Hire HR Setup | Australia | Emp vs Contractor | EH & Xero
Adelaide, Australia - 5:13 am local time
Hiring your first employee or contractor in Australia isn’t just about finding the right person- it’s about getting the setup right from the start.
I help you keep it simple, compliant, and fit for your business.
Most small businesses don’t need a full HR system in the early stages. What you need is clarity on the right structure, the right documents, and a setup that can scale with you.
What I help with:
✔ First Hire Setup
Employee vs contractor decision, cost clarity, and compliant setup from day one
✔ HR & Systems (When You Actually Need Them)
Practical setup of Employment Hero and Xero.
✔ Fast, Practical HR Advice
Clear answers to your questions without ongoing HR overhead
If you're preparing for your first hire and have questions before you make key decisions, reach out or book a session under Consultations or Projects.
