Fair WorK Act Seminar

Most employers do not realise that advertising, recruitment and employment of employees is covered by the Trade Practice Act.

Deceptive and misleading conduct regarding advertising, recruitment and employment has seen more than a few employers run aground and taken to court over this conduct. Your advertisements, recruitment and employment as advertised and offered must be what the employee experiences.

Statements for example as ‘needs some initial cleanup work’ may find you accused of deceptive and misleading conduct in that the employee finds themselves in a situation where they are under stress and pressure fixing up complete messes.

We have considerable experience and expertise to assist you with your advertising, recruitment and pre-employment documents, checklists, guidelines and sound consultation and mentoring.

• Complying with visa requirements;
