Changes introduced by Fair Work Australia
What are your employee rights? What are your rights if you’re not covered? What redress do you have in cases of:
- Unfair dismissal?
- Incorrect wage payment?
- Unfair workplace practices?
Every employee has rights and these can be enforced in either the State or Federal Industrial Relations Commissions. In some circumstances you have just 14 days to apply for redress. Call Etheringtons for help as soon as an issue arises.
We have experience at both Federal and Fair Work Australia Tribunal and can advise on the right course of action.
Excellent success rate
Our rate of success for employees is high and we take pride in enabling people to receive a good outcome from an unfair practice. We can represent you at Conciliation Conferences, which are organised by the employment law Tribunal and have achieved a positive outcome for many clients. Claims can be dealt with quickly which is better for all concerned. We may even be able to obtain your job back for you.
We can advise on:
- employment law contracts
- awards
- workplace agreements you’re asked to sign
Discrimination
Have you been discriminated against on the grounds of:
- Race?
- Ethnic origin?
- Gender?
- Disability?
- Pregnancy?
- Sexual preference?
We can assist with negotiation, reconciliation or a court case. Even if the events occurred some time ago, we can still take action as there is no time limit in such cases in the Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission or the Federal Court, although you may have some difficulty if you leave it for more than 12 months.
