About the mileage allowance
Below are the relevant points for casual assessors, taken from the Payments for Travel and Mileage policy.
3. Reimbursment eligibility for casual assessors:
3.1 Where you live within 25km of the office and use own vehicle, the mileage allowance that you will be paid is the total distance less the actual distance from home to the office each way.
3.2 Where you live further than 25km from office and you use your own vehicle, the mileage allowance that you will be paid is the total distance minus 25km each way.
5. Travel time payment:
5.1 Where travel time is less than or equal to 1 hour each way, your travel time at the horly rate will not be paid.
5.2 No travel time will be paid where casuals live withiin 25km of the office and travel to site is within this distance.
5.3 Where your travel time is greater that 1 hour each way, your travel time minus the initial hour each way will be paid at the hourly rate.

Rest breaks
We do not expect assessors to work for extended periods without a break. For permanent staff, they should take a break of at least 30 minutes after having worked no more than five consecutive hours, and we apply this requirement to have a break to casuals as part of our duty of care. Unpaid breaks are to be recorded on timesheets.
