- 5 things you need to know about the new redundancy laws
- Find out your new severance payment and notice obligations
Dear Reader,
It’s been all over the news…the global financial crisis is causing Australian businesses to have a good hard look at its workforce and redundancies are on the rise. But did you know that the federal government’s Fair Work Bill will impose new requirements on employers in regards to redundancy and retrenchment from 1 July 2009?
As an employer, you want to ensure that you comply with the law and keep out of court when dealing with redundancy. But did you know that if you retrench an employee next year you might have to pay them as much as 21 weeks’ severance pay? Are you ready to do this?
There are many other things changing as well…
