Federal Government flags changes to workplace laws as a result of the COVID-19 crisis in the following areas:
- Simplification of employee awards.
- Matching employer staff demands with employee hours.
- A practical approach to penalty rates for employees working from home.
- Flexibility around using casuals due to the Coronavirus.
- Defining what a casual employee is in law after recent court cases have ruled that casual employees are entitled to holiday pay and sick/personal leave.
The Federal Government is also considering harsher penalties (including jail time) for employers for serious underpayments to their employees.
Is there economic stimulus on the way for the building and construction industry?
This industry has remained active during the crisis and the government is currently considering spending money in the building and construction sector in order to build more dwellings.
