An employment contract is an integral part of the employment relationship. Contracts can exist in a non-written form, however the purpose of a written contract is to define the terms of what is being agreed, to avoid things getting lost in translation, or over time, forgotten. In this episode of our two part series, we discuss what we believe are the 9 critical express terms that should be included in a contract of employment, and why, being: Notice of termination Types of employment Place of work Remuneration Hours of work Off-set Entire agreement clauses Position descriptions Clauses to survive the termination of employment Stay with us for "To Tweet or Not To Tweet"; where the team competes for the most tweetable of employment law news.…

In this episode of our podcast, we are honoured to be joined by Samantha Mangwana of Shine Lawyers . Samantha leads the Executive Employment and Partnership practice, and is a recognised expert on employment and discrimination law issues. Samantha shares with the team some of her experiences from before, during and after the media focus of the #MeToo movement, both in the U.K and locally here in Australia. We discuss employer obligations and the impact and response to sexual harassment in the workplace; risk factors and hierarchal environments; and whether Non-Disclosure Agreements, and the possible passing of legislation in these cases to limit them, will be at the expense of victims.

As the weather starts to warm up and we approach the final quarter of the year, party season will be soon upon us. End of year parties can be great for team engagement, and as a celebration of the year's success, however they can also be fraught with legal risk for employers. In this episode of our podcast, we are joined by special guest Lizzy Boots, of Boots and All Consulting, to discuss some of the dangers of work social events, what employers should be aware of, and some practical measures to help employers avoid a 'cocktail of chaos'. For further advice or assistance please reach out to the team at PCC Employment Lawyers or contact Lizzy Boots at Boots & All . Stay with us at the end of the podcast for the team's challenge of tweetable tweets of employment news.…

Working Knowledge: the Employment Law Podcast

The Fair Work Ombudsman (FWO) has recently released its strategic priorities for the 2022-23 period, with fast food, restaurants/cafes, and agriculture key industries of focus. Added to the list is the universities sector, with the FWO concerned about allegations of long-running underpayments in many universities, citing management oversight, decentralised HR functions and lack of investment in payroll and time-recording systems as the trending causes of non-compliance. With possible increased funding from the new Labor government, we may also see higher levels of enforcement, making employee underpayments (intentional or accidental) something employers should be concerned about. In this podcast, we discuss the civil penalty provisions for corporations and directors for contraventions under the Fair Work Act, the functions of the FWO, and how employers may come under their radar. We also discuss where we see the vast majority of underpayments in respect of breaches of modern awards and the National Employment Standards, and key areas for employers to look at. The Good, The Bad and The Ugly has been replaced by a new segment; "Would you Tweet This?", a challenge for the team to come up with the most 'tweet worthy' of topical employment law news. Our movie review returns with this episode featuring "The Firm", starring Tom Cruise, Jeanne Tripplehorn and Gene Hackman.…

This podcast is the second part of our series discussing managing absent employees. In this episode we address the management of employees that have had a long term absence due to personal injury or illness. We discuss how to take the next steps, the legal risks, and the procedures that need to be followed when it becomes apparent that the inherent requirements of the role can't be met. This is a complex and high risk area of law and employers are advised to proceed with caution and seek legal advice for their specific situation. We also bring you "The Good, the Bad and The Ugly" of recent employment law news, and our movie review returns with a resounding thumbs up for the 1957 American courtroom drama "12 Angry Men".…
