: Australian Regulatory Compliance ReviewEmployment Seminar: Workplace Relations under Labor
On Thursday 13 March 2008 in Sydney, a seminar will be held at which Ron McCallum, Professor of Law at Sydney University, former Dean of Sydney Law School and leading authority on employment law, will guide you through and provide an overview of the important parts of the new Workplace Relations legislation.
I'll also be presenting.
The seminar topics are:
- Are the changes to be made really significant or are they going to be ?WorkChoices Light??
- Is the end of AWAs going to be a big issue for you, and how are Collective Agreements changing?
- Is the dismissal of an unsatisfactory employee going to become a major (and costly) difficulty under the new employment law regime?
- What is the practical effect of some recent court cases on how you should be organising your HR procedures?
Contact Narelle Ryan at nryan@langes.com.au or (02) 9299 7577 by 11 March 2008 to register.
