About the Webinar

Every industry comes with its own unique workplace issues. But, the agribusiness sector comes with a particularly challenging set of workplace issues to navigate. With the Federal Government introducing wide-sweeping reforms, it has never been more important for organisations to be across their new obligations. This session explores the key issues, including:

  • Flexible work arrangements – understanding the new requirements and obligations on employers
  • Right to disconnect laws – understanding their scope and relevance to agribusinesses
  • The changing nature of casual employment and the impact on agribusiness
  • Ensuring compliance to minimum wages and conditions and staying on the right side of the Fair Work Commission
  • Paying correct rates and keeping your records straight
  • Awareness of obligations when using a labour hire service
  • Reforms involving multi employer enterprise bargaining – what will this mean for the agribusiness sector?
