Join us to understand these changes and how directors must perform their duties and exercise powers to fulfil their obligations.

Recent changes in workplace laws continue to extend employee rights and protect wages and entitlements. Household names such as Coles, Woolworths and CBA have become regular fixtures in the media in relation to wage underpayments, reflecting the challenge of staying up to date and compliant.
This webinar will provide essential insights into an increasingly stringent regulatory and compliance environment and consider practical approaches towards fulfilling director obligations.
We will explore:
- The most recent changes – Closing Loopholes No. 1 and 2
- The impact of changes, including changing definitions of who is an employee and a casual, the new ‘right to disconnect’, and criminalisation of intentional underpayments
- Implications for directors of recent decisions
- Practical steps for directors in addressing possible issues
- Ways boards can mitigate the risk of underpayments
This webinar will provide you with an up-to-date understanding of workplace changes and practical and actionable frameworks to support workforce obligations.
