: Australian Regulatory Compliance ReviewDiscussion paper on National Employment Standards
The Australian Government has released an exposure draft of its proposed ten National Employment Standards (NES), together with a discussion paper calling for public feedback by 4 April 2008.
The NES will cover the key minimum entitlements for all Australian employees, to apply from 1 January 2010. These entitlements will be guaranteed in legislation so that they cannot be excluded or modified in a way that undermines the safety net.
The NES are:
- Maximum weekly hours of work
- Requests by parents for flexible working arrangements
- Parental leave (and related entitlements)
- Annual leave
- Personal/carer?s leave and compassionate leave
- Community service leave
- Long service leave
- Public holidays
- Notice of termination and redundancy
- Fair Work Information Statement
