Full transcript
Good morning, I'm the employment support consultant. You mentioned you were fired from your job last week — can you tell me exactly what happened?
上星期五老板突然叫我进办公室，说因为公司业务缩减，从下星期一开始不需要我了，也没有提前通知。
Did your employer give you any written notice, or just a verbal statement? This matters for your rights under the Fair Work Act.
没有，什么都没有，只是口头说的，也没有给我任何书面文件。
An unfair dismissal claim can be lodged with the Fair Work Commission within 21 days of dismissal, regardless of notice. Lack of notice is a separate entitlement matter.
21天是从被解雇那天开始算吗？我该怎么申请？
Yes, the 21 days start from your dismissal date. You'll need to complete an online form and provide your employment contract and payslips.
如果雇主没有提前通知，我是不是应该拿到代通知金？
Yes, if you weren't given the notice period, you're generally entitled to payment in lieu of notice, separate from any unfair dismissal claim.
太好了，那我接下来需要做什么？
Please visit the Fair Work Commission website today, complete the form, and upload your contract, payslips, and any dismissal letter you received.
好的，我这就去办理。对了，我那份雇佣合同好像还留在以前公司的邮箱里，我待会打电话给前台，让他们发一份给我。
Terms in this dialogue that cost marks
CCL is marked on information transferred. These Australian terms have no direct word in most test languages — get one wrong and the segment's information is gone.
- Fair Work直接说英文 Fair Work，因为这是机构专有名词。
- Unfair dismissal译为“不公平解雇”或“非法解雇”，可视语境说明为“员工认为被不合理解雇”。
- Fair Work Commission直接说英文名称 Fair Work Commission，可在后面加一句简短说明“公平工作委员会”帮助听众理解，但机构名本身建议保留英文。
Practise it
Reading a transcript is not interpreting. The practice room on this site plays each segment at native speed, records you, and marks the information you transferred against the same categories examiners use — omissions, distortions, insertions — so you know where the marks went. Your first full dialogue is marked free.
