Do you need an employment contract review?

Are your employment contracts compliant with new industrial relations legislation? 

As part of the Government's new industrial relations legislation, the Fair Work Act 2009, new
National Employment Standards came into effect on 1 January 2010. The Standards outline the new minimum requirements for employment contracts across the country. The lawyers at The Quinn Group are able to review your existing employment contracts and advise you of what, if any, changes need to be made in order to meet your current obligations.

The new National Employment Standards may affect your existing employment contracts in relation to the following areas:

• Maximum weekly hours of work

• Requests for flexible working arrangements

• Parental Leave

• Annual Leave

• Personal/Carer's and Compassionate Leave

• Community Service Leave

• Long Service Leave

• Public Holidays

• Notice of Termination and Redundancy Pay

• A Fair Work Information Statement

The introduction of the Fair Work Act 2009 and National Employment Standards has brought significant change to the Australian employment landscape. It is important for employers to be fully aware of their obligations and responsibilities in order to ensure that no penalties are received for non-compliance.
