Since the Federal election in May 2022, the Labor Government has passed broad sweeping industrial relations legislation, representing the most significant amendments to the Fair Work Act since it was introduced in 2009. With many of the changes being introduced in stages, it is important for employers to keep up to date with current and upcoming changes which may impact their organisation or business.
On Thursday 11 July at 12.30pm, Nikola Prestia, Partner, and Fiona Jamieson, Lawyer, will be running a free 1-hour webinar discussing further legislative changes under the Closing Loopholes legislation which will come into operation as of 26 August 2024 and beyond, affecting every Australian national system employer.
This webinar will provide a practical overview of these changes and how they may impact your business, including:
- The new legislative right of employees to disconnect
- New definition to determine whether a person is a contractor or an employee by the re-introduction of the multifactorial test
- Changes to the definition of casual employment with a focus on the practical reality of an employment relationship
- Simplification of the current casual conversion provisions of the Fair Work Act 2009
- Criminalisation of wage theft and superannuation theft
This is a webinar not to miss.
