The challenges of managing the spread of the coronavirus and the associated absenteeism is an unfortunate but timely reminder for employers to think about how they proactively manage, and respond to, illness at work.
To help employers, we are pleased to be hosting our next webinar looking at best practice when it comes to managing personal/carer’s leave and illness in the workplace.
During this webinar, our Managing Director and Principal, Athena Koelmeyer will talk you through:
Proactive steps employers can take when it comes to communicable illnesses;
Personal/carer’s leave entitlements;
Legitimate versus fraudulent personal/carer’s leave;
What you can do if you suspect an employee has handed in a falsified medical certificate; and
Real world case law studies on absence management – including adverse action, unfair dismissal and disability discrimination cases.
The webinar will begin at 11.00 am (AEDT) on Wednesday, 25 March 2020.

The COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic has significantly impacted the financial stability of many businesses. Employers have had to make difficult decisions and implement different measures to ensure the ongoing viability of their businesses. Some of these measures have included asking employees to agree to temporary reductions in their hours of work or to a reduction in their remuneration.
2020 continues to deliver unprecedented challenges to employers as they manage the economic and workplace culture impact of COVID-19. Difficult, but necessary, decisions taken in relation to workforce numbers together with increased poor employee behaviour has seen a dramatic rise in the number of unfair dismissal and adverse action claims.
The Fair Work Commission (FWC) has a vital role to play in the management of the current COVID-19 pandemic as it continues to impact employment relationships across the country.
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.
