The Closing Loopholes Law – officially known as the Fair Work Amendment (Closing Loopholes) Act 2023 and 2024 – will introduce significant changes to Australia’s employment laws.

The law is made up of two parts which addresses a number of new and existing aspects of Australian employment law – with Part 1 passing through Parliament in December 2023, and Part 2 recently passing in February 2024. Once implemented, these changes will have a major impact on Australian employers and employees.

As an employer, understanding these changes is crucial to ensure your workplace policies and practices are up to scratch – and to avoid heavy penalties that are being introduced.

Sprintlaw’s free webinar and Q&A is designed to help you understand the key changes your business should be on top of, and provide next steps your small business should take to ensure you stay compliant.

We’ll cover key legal questions, including:

• What is the Closing the Loopholes Act?
• How does Part 1 impact my small business? Including ‘Same Day, Same Pay’ rule, new criminal offences, and redundancy & insolvency regulations.
• How does Part 2 impact my small business? Including changes to casual/contract employment, ‘Right to Disconnect rule’, and new penalties for breaching the Fair Work Act.
• What steps do I need to take to stay compliant?
