QHA Members are reminded that this Friday, 26 January 2024 is the Australia Day public holiday.
To ensure employees receive the correct public holiday entitlements, the QHA has developed Guide on these entitlements under the Hospitality Industry (General) Award 2020 (‘HIGA’). The Guide is available below
