In the wake of challenging economic circumstances and increasing episodes of poor employee behaviour, employers may be required to make difficult, but necessary, decisions in relation to its workforce.
In the wake of challenging economic circumstances and increasing episodes of poor employee behaviour, employers may be required to make difficult, but necessary, decisions in relation to its workforce.
Decisions to end employment relationships expose employers to adverse action or unfair dismissal claims by aggrieved employees. So, it’s important that employers understand their legal obligations to give themselves the best chance to defend those claims.
Please join our Managing Director and Principal, Athena Koelmeyer as she takes an in-depth look at:
the general protections and unfair dismissal jurisdiction of the Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth);
the ‘must know’ HR and legal fundamentals; and
real world case examples of successful and failed adverse action and unfair dismissal claims.
This webinar is a “must attend” for those who are responsible for making decisions about the management of employees, including CEOs, COOs, HR professionals and managers.
The webinar will begin at 11.00am (AEST) on Thursday, 5 September 2024.

An employer has successfully defended an adverse action claim brought by a former employee as the court was satisfied that the employee was not dismissed for a prohibited reason.
Many businesses, and in particular small businesses employers subscribe to human resources information systems which offer access to template letters and policies to provide a ready-made solution or to manage human resources administration.
For most employers, casual employment is favoured because of the flexibility it provides – employees are employed as required and have no guarantee of ongoing employment. This flexibility however does not mean that casual employees are not protected from adverse action.
Workplace Law's Managing Director and Principal, Athena Koelmeyer, explores two key areas that have undergone significant change over the past few years and will undergo yet another change under these amendments – that is, the changes to casual employment and the new definition of employment.
In this webinar, we tackle the challenges faced by employers when it comes to managing workplace behaviour, and discuss a range of interesting issues which can occur in both the traditional and hybrid workplace.
