About HR eXpert
HR eXpert helps staff employed under the Public Sector
Employment and Management Act 2002 understand their
entitlements and conditions. It is made up of interactive
inquiries which cater for your particular circumstances.
The "rules" are all built into HR eXpert so it does not
matter how much or how little you know about your
entitlements.
HR eXpert also includes a comprehensive list of NSW and other Australian government agencies.

details" link to find out how the inquiry can help you.
Leaving the Service
If you are planning to leave the service, HR
eXpert can calculate the value of your Recreation and Extended Leave and the
tax that this will attract. You can
model different options (for example, using different retirement/resignation
dates or final pay rates) to assist in your decision making. You can print a report that provides detailed
information about each of your options.
Voluntary Redundancy
If you have been offered a Voluntary
Redundancy, HR eXpert can determine an estimated value of your Voluntary
Redundancy payout, including the Extended Leave and Recreation Leave components
and the tax that this will attract. You
can print a report that details all the components that make up the Voluntary
Redundancy payout.
Entitlement to
Extended Leave/Recognition of Previous Service
HR eXpert can determine whether your previous
service in other government agencies can be recognised for Extended Leave
purposes and calculate the amount of your Extended Leave entitlement. You can print a report detailing your
entitlements or letters to employers requesting certificates of service.
Entitlement to Maternity Leave
HR eXpert can assist you to determine your
entitlement to paid and unpaid Maternity Leave.
The inquiry can help you select your options, including return to work
dates and hours of work. You can print
out details of your leave and the payments you will receive and an application
for Maternity Leave form.
Variation to Maternity Leave
If you have Maternity Leave approved and you
would like to vary your arrangements, HR eXpert can provide a letter to your
agency requesting approval for the changes.
Study Time
HR eXpert can assist you to determine your
entitlement to Study Time and can help you choose how you take it. You can print out details of your proposed
arrangements and an application for Study Time.
Entitlements for a Proposed Journey
HR eXpert allows you to plan a journey and
determine an estimated value of your travel entitlements for that journey. It caters for both one-day and overnight
journeys. You can print a detailed
report and travel diary. Application
forms can also be produced which may be used in your agency as an application
for approval to travel, use a private motor vehicle, use a departmental motor
vehicle, undertake air travel or receive a cash advance payment.
Entitlements for a Completed Journey
HR eXpert allows you to determine an
estimated value of your travel entitlements for a completed journey. It caters for both one-day and overnight
journeys. You can print a detailed
report, travel diary and claim form.
Higher Duties Allowance
The Higher Duties Allowance inquiry provides
a simple calculator to assist you in making decisions about receiving higher
duties allowances. It allows you to
determine the approximate gross value of the payment you may receive if you are
paid a higher duties allowance.
Building a Salary Package
HR eXpert allows
you to calculate and compare different Salary Packaging options that may be
available to you. The module is based on
Salary Packaging arrangements described in State Procurements Contract 6036
(Flexible Salary Packaging for non-SES Public Sector Employees). This inquiry does not cater for Salary
Packaging arrangements for SES officers.
You can investigate Salary Packaging in three
areas - leasing a motor vehicle, contributing to a superannuation fund and
purchasing or leasing a laptop computer.
This inquiry does not consider your individual financial objectives,
financial situation and needs. It can
provide basic financial information which can be used to assist your decision
making. You should not act on the basis
of this information without considering, and if necessary, taking appropriate
financial, legal and other professional advice about your own particular circumstances.
Agency List Inquiry
The HR eXpert Agency
List Inquiry allows you to access a comprehensive Agency List which provides
details of NSW and other Australian government agencies.
The primary use of the Agency List is to determine eligibility for Extended
Leave for NSW government employees under the Public Sector Employment and
Management Act (PSEMA). However, it is an excellent resource which provides
detailed information about agencies which can be used for many other purposes.
You can search the list to find individual agencies, using any of the many names
they are known by. This will provide details of the agency and allow you to
track them over time by identifying their predecessors and successors. You can
also download an excel spreadsheet which contains details of all agencies in the
list.
