Document background
The Internship Offer Letter is a crucial document used when offering an internship position to a candidate in Australia. It serves as the formal written confirmation of the internship arrangement and outlines all essential terms and conditions of the position. This document is particularly important in the Australian context as it must comply with specific requirements under the Fair Work Act 2009 and related employment legislation, especially regarding the distinction between paid and unpaid internships. The letter should be used when an organization has selected an intern and wants to formally extend an offer, whether the internship is part of an educational program, paid work experience, or a structured learning opportunity. It includes critical information about the position, working conditions, learning objectives, supervision arrangements, and any requirements related to educational institutions.
