Understanding and complying with your employer obligations

The Fair Work Act was implemented in January 2010. This course is designed to introduce you to the Fair Work Act and its key features. It focuses on the unfair dismissal provisions including the Fair Dismissal Code for Small Businesses and the new collective bargaining framework. It aims to help you not only understand the Fair Work legislation but also enable you to tackle the challenge of its practical implementation. 

As the course is not tailored to your particular circumstances, it should not be treated as legal advice.
