DFAT released the standard employment contract and terms & conditions for locally engaged staff (LES) employed by the Department of Home Affairs to process visas at the Australian Embassy in Bangkok. The fixed-term contract specifies a two-year-six-month employment period for the Immigration Officer position (classification LE), with salary determined by the Thailand LES Salary Table as of July 2025. The 37-page document outlines the comprehensive employment framework governing LES engagement, including pre-conditions of employment (medical clearance, probity checks, security clearances), contract variations, internal transfers, code of conduct, and remuneration structures. The contract notes that probationary periods are not applicable and employees have no claims against the Embassy upon ceasing employment. The terms and conditions document was last updated in 2022 with provisions for amendments tracked separately.
