Any individual accepting these Terms, making a booking or giving an instruction on behalf of the Client warrants that they have authority to bind the Client.

If these Terms conflict with a specific quote, work order or separate written agreement expressly accepted by Recruitz, that document prevails only to the extent of the conflict.

Recruitz may update these Terms. The version presented to, or in force and reasonably made available to, the Client when the relevant booking is made applies to that booking.

3.Supply of Personnel

Recruitz will use reasonable efforts to supply suitably experienced Personnel based on information provided by the Client. Recruitz does not guarantee any particular individual and may substitute Personnel where reasonably necessary.

Unless expressly agreed otherwise, Personnel supplied by Recruitz remain employees or engaged workers of Recruitz and do not become employees of the Client.

The Client must not materially change duties, site, location, hours, plant, equipment or nature of work without notifying Recruitz where the change affects placement, rate, competency, licensing or safety requirements.

4.Client Information and Warranties

The Client warrants that information supplied about duties, site, hazards, required skills, licences, plant, hours, PPE, induction and hazardous substances is complete and accurate.

The Client must immediately notify Recruitz of material changes to the work, workplace or risks.

Recruitz may rely on Client information when selecting Personnel, setting rates and assessing the placement.

5.Work Health and Safety, Supervision and Site Control

Each party must comply with WHS laws applicable to it. Nothing in these Terms transfers, excludes or contracts out of a statutory WHS duty.

The Client is responsible for day‑to‑day direction and competent supervision of Personnel and for workplace, plant, systems and site conditions within the Client's management or control.

The Client must provide a safe workplace, safe systems, site‑specific induction, task instruction and supervision, suitable plant, emergency arrangements and agreed site‑specific PPE.

Quoted rates are based on duties, hours, location and conditions disclosed by the Client.

Additional charges may apply for overtime, weekends, public holidays, shifts, travel, waiting time, penalties, loadings, allowances, site allowances, fares, meals or other employment entitlements.

Recruitz may adjust rates on reasonable notice to pass through increases in award rates, protected pay, enterprise agreement obligations, superannuation, payroll tax, workers compensation premiums, statutory levies, government charges or mandatory employment costs.

Where a regulated labour hire arrangement order, protected pay rate or binding workplace instrument applies, the Client must provide information reasonably required to determine the rate and Recruitz may adjust its charge rate accordingly.

9.Hours and Client Approval

The Client must ensure hours worked are accurately recorded and approved by a director, manager, supervisor, foreman, site representative or other person authorised or reasonably appearing authorised to approve hours on the Client's behalf. Approval of hours by such a representative binds the Client for invoicing purposes.

Personnel are engaged for a minimum of 4 hours per booked shift unless otherwise agreed.

10.Cancellation, Delays and Waiting Time

A shift may be cancelled or rescheduled without cancellation charge if Recruitz receives notice before 3:30pm on the business day before the shift.

Recruitz may charge actual waiting time at the applicable rate where Personnel attend and remain available at the Client's request.

To the extent permitted by law, the Client indemnifies Recruitz against third‑party loss to the extent caused by the Client's breach, negligence, unlawful direction, or unsafe workplace, plant or equipment within its management or control.

Any indemnity is reduced to the extent loss was caused or contributed to by Recruitz.

Nothing excludes or modifies rights, remedies, statutory duties or liabilities that cannot lawfully be excluded, including under the Australian Consumer Law and WHS legislation.

15.Non‑Solicitation, Direct Engagement and Placement Fee

This clause applies to any person introduced, referred, nominated, presented, interviewed, supplied or otherwise made known to the Client by or through Recruitz, whether or not that person commences an assignment.

15.9Commercial Placement Charge

The Placement Fee is the agreed commercial charge for the benefit of engaging Personnel sourced, introduced or supplied by Recruitz outside the Recruitz labour‑hire arrangement. It reflects Recruitz's recruitment and onboarding investment and lost commercial opportunity and is not intended to operate as a penalty.

15.10Payment and Remedies

Either party may terminate ongoing supply by giving 14 days written notice.

Recruitz may terminate immediately or suspend Services for breach, non‑payment, insolvency or where Recruitz reasonably believes the workplace is unsafe.

17.Force Majeure

Neither party is liable for failure or delay to the extent caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including extreme weather, natural disaster, industrial action or government restrictions.

18.Privacy

Each party must handle personal information collected in connection with the Services in accordance with applicable privacy law and its applicable privacy policy.
