Purpose-built technology for award and wage compliance — done right
WageCheq is more than an audit tool. It's a powerful compliance platform designed from the ground up to tackle the complexity of Australia's workplace relations system. Built by industrial relations experts and informed by real-world use cases, WageCheq brings together flexibility, accuracy and transparency in one integrated solution.
Whether you're conducting a single audit or building a long-term compliance framework, WageCheq gives you the clarity and control you need.
Off-the-shelf payroll systems and spreadsheets simply aren't equipped to handle the layered rules, exceptions and obligations that apply to different roles, awards, agreements and classifications.
WageCheq was built specifically to solve this problem — with features designed to handle real-world workforce complexity at scale.
Core Platform Features
Audit Workbench
A secure, centralised environment for managing wage compliance audits from start to finish. The WageCheq Audit Workbench allows your audit team, internal stakeholders and advisers to work together in a single source of truth. Features include:
Line-by-line validation of entitlements
Drill-down reporting to individual pay periods and employees
Annotated calculations and audit notes
Real-time collaboration between teams, legal advisers, accountants or regulators
This fully transparent workflow ensures audits are accurate, defensible, and easy to manage — even in high-stakes remediation exercises.
Flexible Data Integration
We work with your existing systems — not against them.
WageCheq is designed to integrate seamlessly with most payroll, timekeeping and HRIS systems. Our platform can import and process large volumes of historical and current data with minimal disruption. Capabilities include:
Automated data structuring to reflect workforce roles, locations, classifications and streams
Support for custom pay codes, award interpretations and legacy systems
Bulk data handling for complex or long-term audits
This means you don't need to overhaul your systems to get started — WageCheq adapts to your environment.
Customisable Rules Engine
Precision modelling of entitlements — no matter how complex.
At the heart of WageCheq is our proprietary rules engine, purpose-built to model the true complexity of Australia's industrial relations framework. The engine can:
Apply one or multiple Modern Awards and enterprise agreements
Handle day vs. shift work, casual vs. permanent roles, and changing classifications over time
Account for allowances, loadings, penalties, superannuation and leave
Incorporate contracts, set-off arrangements and individual flexibility agreements (IFAs)
These rules are assembled into “instruments” — layered models of employee entitlements — which WageCheq uses to map obligations with consistency and accuracy across years of data.
Clear, Actionable Reporting
Data you can trust — and act on.
WageCheq produces detailed, regulator-ready reports that present findings in clear, accessible formats. You can filter results by employee, classification, time period or type of entitlement — all backed by line-by-line audit trails and notes.
This transparency ensures stakeholders can:
Understand and verify calculations
Easily navigate complex data sets
Communicate findings with confidence to leadership, regulators or legal advisers
Security and Compliance Built-In
Data integrity and confidentiality are non-negotiable. WageCheq is hosted in secure Australian-based environments with strict access controls, encrypted data handling, and detailed audit logs. Whether you're managing sensitive payroll history or preparing for regulator engagement, you can trust WageCheq to keep your information secure.
Designed for Scale, Backed by Expertise
From small desktop audits to large-scale remediation projects, WageCheq is built to scale with your needs. And because the platform is backed by experienced industrial relations professionals, you get not only powerful technology — but the expertise to help you apply it correctly.
WageCheq gives you the tools to manage compliance with accuracy, accountability and confidence — no matter how complex your workforce.
