AMP is updating its employment contracts to reflect contemporary legal and industry standards, with no impact to employee roles, pay, leave and other benefits, such as our flexible working arrangements.
AMP’s updated employee contracts were drafted and reviewed by an external law firm, who verified that all of the contract clauses align with common industry practice used by many other organisations.
The change was initially communicated to employees in February, with resources provided to help them understand the new contracts.
The clauses are common in most contemporary employment contracts, including the right to monitor employee computer usage on employer provided devices when they are working from home. AMP is not and will not conduct camera surveillance on employees when they work from home.
As is standard in most contemporary employment contracts, it’s important for employers to have the ability to conduct medical examinations in circumstances where concerns are held about an employee’s fitness to perform work.
