Fair Work Amendment (Closing Loopholes) Legislation

A second round of controversial – and hastily implemented – workplace relations legislation has now been passed by Parliament, with more than 400 pages of additional legislation that upends settled law and practices and go well beyond regulating employee-employer relationships. Every business will be directly or indirectly impacted by these laws.

In addition to implementing widespread reforms, the new legislation is backed by up to 50-fold increases in penalties even for relatively minor breaches of laws.

All businesses will need to consider how these reforms affect them, their current employment arrangements and methods for engaging labour (including labour hire and subcontractors) and, more broadly, consider their future labour engagement strategies.

Given the broad scope of these reforms, this is a must attend for business owners, directors and anyone involved in industrial relations and human resources.
