Modern Slavery Statement

Our commitment against modern slavery

REMIE is not required to report under the Modern Slavery Act 2018, but we publish this statement because the wellbeing of our Remies is a top priority, and our Policies and Procedures are built with them in mind.

1.Our commitment

REMIE Australia (REMIE) is Australia's pioneer outsourcing company dedicated to remote (virtual) healthcare assisting services. We outsource qualified healthcare professionals in the Philippines to assist healthcare providers in Australia and help resolve the shortage of in-office staff through remote assisting. We call our remote assistant(s), Remie(s).

REMIE wants to ensure that on the launch of our company, we issue a statement on the Modern Slavery Act 2018 to make sure that our business and operations are compliant. REMIE is not required to report under this Act, however we believe that basic human rights and the wellbeing of our Remies are the top priority. That's why our Policies and Procedures are created with our Remies in mind, as indicated in our "REMIE Human Resources Policy & Procedure Manual".

REMIE does not condone modern slavery and makes sure that violation of human rights does not have any place in this company.

We ensure that before REMIE launched, we asked for advice from the Remies themselves on what salary is appropriate, what benefits they want, what working conditions they would want us to ensure, and other recommendations. This group discussion helped us build the system that REMIE has now, and with the guidance from our Remies we are confident to say that these recommendations are from the Remies, for the Remies.

2.Workload

Our Remies' work hours depend on the contract they signed up for. We have full-time and part-time Remies: full-time works 40 hours per week and part-time works 20 hours per week.

Remies who work overtime are well compensated; however, before overtime is approved, we make sure to talk to our clients so that overtime is approved ahead of time and our Remies can adjust their schedule for the next day without disrupting their rest or conflicting with their personal commitments.

3.Working conditions and welfare

REMIE strategically chose the Philippines as our partner country because of the time zone. Australia and the Philippines have a two-hour time difference, and some areas even share the same time zone. This means our Remies don't work graveyard shifts, and they have time for their family and friends.

We conduct monthly check-ins with our Remies so that they always have a platform to report any issues or concerns with their clients or with REMIE's management.

For newly hired Remies, we conduct bi-weekly check-ins for the first three months.

4.Wages and benefits

Remies are compensated on an hourly basis. We surveyed how much a healthcare worker in the Philippines earns and found that the compensation we provide our Remies is twice (or nearly three times) the salary they would usually get as nurses, physical therapists, and other allied healthcare professionals.

Remies have paid annual leave that they can use when sick or for holiday leave.

Remies are also paid during the legal holidays in Australia. This usually depends on which holiday is observed in each state. We made this mandatory because most of our Remies aren't only working for themselves; they support their families. This ensures they have stable, regular income they can depend on.

Remies also receive health cards provided yearly, along with performance incentives.
