 Dec 01 2012, 04:23
Australian employment law has undergone another significant change. The Federal Government of Australia has introduced the Fair Work Act 2009. This has created a new industrial relations umpire, Fair Work Australia (“FWA”) which will operate as a "one-stop shop" for matters relating to industrial relations within Australia.
There will be one bureaucracy (FWA) instead of the seven different bureaucracies which formerly regulated this aspect of national life. Even the Australian Industrial Relations Commission has been rolled into FWA.
Enforcement of the regulatory framework created by FWA will be via the existing Federal Court for which has been created a "Fair Work Division".
