Due to the introduction of the Fair Work Act in March 2009, the Chamber of Commerce is providing business with information seminars and training workshops needed to gain skills required in the workplace. Some of the major implications for business shall be the reintroduction of unfair dismissal provisions on the 1st July 2009, together with the introduction of modernised awards on the 1st January 2010 and an expanded set of minimum conditions referred to as the National Employment Standards. These changes will apply to all organisations and business is strongly recommended to identify areas required for change well in advance of the two key operative dates; 1st July 2009 and the 1st January 2010. Attending our ‘Understanding Forward with Fairness’ information session is a practical way to grasp the effects of the changes that will impact your business. Examples are provided to demonstrate how these changes will in fact impact on your business.
