The Evolving Workplace: Fair Work Act update
10 June 2021
In this short “Talk 5 in 5” episode, Seamus Burke, Emma Gruschka and Ariel Curtis outline five key issues employers need to be across regarding these amendments.
A statutory definition of a casual employee is now included in the Act—this is discussed, along with the casual conversion provisions made in the amendments, and provisions for orders relating to casual loading amounts to prevent so called “double-dipping” issues. Our presenters also explain how the amendments empower the Fair Work Commission to deal with disputes relating to the new casual employee provisions.
To listen to this episode, and hear about what employers should do as a result of the amendments becoming law, go to The Evolving Workplace: Fair Work Act update and be directed to Sparke Helmore's podcast page on our website or listen on Podbean through The Sparke Cast host page.
