If you believe your employer is not paying you the correct entitlements and/or you believe your workplace rights are not being met, you can make a complaint to the FWO. The services of the FWO are free to all workers in Australia. We are an Australian Government agency who helps regulate Australian workplaces. You can't get into trouble or have your visa cancelled for contacting us to ask for information about your pay or other workplace rights. There are protections for eligible visa holders experiencing workplace exploitation. For more information, see our Visa protections pilot programs page at fairwork.gov.au/visaprotections. If you are concerned that your sponsoring employer is not meeting their obligations in line with the terms of your visa you should contact Home Affairs. Your sponsoring employer cannot cancel your visa. Only Home Affairs can grant, refuse or cancel visas. The department can provide information on visa choices, rights and obligations, including how to change your sponsor or apply for permanent residence. If you require further information or assistance from Home Affairs visit immi.homeaffairs.gov.au or phone 131 881.
