Casual labour
My wife works as a casual and has been working a minimum 45hrs a week for the last 6 months. Is it right to say that after 37.5hrs worked, you should be paid at overtime rates.

I suggest she contact her union, state govt labour department or ministry of fair trading who may be able to help further. In my experience casuals get paid a higher rate than fulltime employees but don't qualify for holiday or sick pay. Good luck.
