What’s in the eBook?

Australia has one of the most complex and confusing employment law systems in the world. From the Fair Work Commission (FWC) to the National Employment Standards (NES), there’s a lot of information (and acronyms) for business owners to be across. Add in unpaid work, internships and vocational placements, and it’s a lot to digest. With so many areas of employment to be across, we’ve created this guide to help you understand the legal requirements of hiring in Australia, and help you understand the circumstances where unpaid work may – and may not – be legal. In this guide, we’ll cover:

• An introduction to employment in Australia
• Is unpaid work lawful in Australia?
• What is considered an employment relationship?
• Situations where unpaid work may be unlawful
• + lots more.
