As per the employment relationship, employee is eligible for salary in exchanged of their work therefore, company paid her fix remuneration at each end of the month so he used to earned $150000 per annum. Organization also paid reimbursement of $500 to employee for photo shoot at outside area. Further, this only paid to subordinate within the organisation. On the other hand, she faces back pain and shoulder problem during climbing to mountain. So organisation also gives relaxation for absence for few time period. Hence, by reviewing all point it is to be noted that Anna is just employee in photographer company which is just liable for their fix remuneration at the end of the month.
The argument relates to bonus and reimbursement is also indicated that Anna and max relationship is just based on employment contractual term where both party argues to each other regarding payment.
(b). Employer have to pay her for the period she refused to travel for work.
In this case, as employer side management has paid already to Anna $500. But she argues that such amount paid by management for their the best work performance and she refuse to go outside area for photo shoot. But after some time he decided self for go outside from local area. Therefore, It is to be noted that it is decided by higher authority that any amount paid by them is incentive or reimbursement. So that if management paid $500 as reimbursement amount then it will be treats as same. In addition, higher authority is not liable to paid any amount if they paid already and employee has not right to determined any amount nature. Therefore, employer is not required to paid for go outside for photography purpose. Apart from this, management should focus on employee work performance and they should gives incentive also for best work performance with efficiency manner. In this case, Marion shoot photo from which cannot be perform by everyone with similar manner. So for this duty he is the eligible for more remuneration as bonus.
In this case, employer also argue that, they have already paid in previous month of $500 as a bonus for their good work performance and clearly state that authority will not be paid for meals and travelling expenses so it is suffered to organisation self. Therefore, photography field required to take shoot at different place so they are obligated to visit different place. So this expenses is common which organisation should bear for operate their business well because it gives profit to enterprise. Hence, higher authority should paid to remuneration expense for their employee visit for operation work.

In this case, it is the duty of Max who is employer of Anna that specified every term in front of their employee. Further, management of Creative Juices Pty. Ltd. is to be specified about every term and condition regarding legal employment agreement. Therefore, authority should be specified while giving $500 to Anna. Failure of proper discloser arise confusion in Anna mind. On the other hand, it is also employer responsibilities to make policy regarding safety during work. As well as they should also provide safety tools and equipment as their need for being safety from their operation. It also to be noted that employment act also specified that every employer is required to paid reimbursement as equal to expenses arisen during work operation. Management should clearly specify every term with fair manner. In this condition, authority gives statement suddenly that amount deposit of $500 which is bonus for their good work. But Anna spend it as reimbursement. This mistake has arisen because non specified of term with proper manner by responsible authority.
On the other hand, there are vicarious liabilities has arisen because it's a duty of employer to protect the interest of employee from hazardous work operation.
