Australian Industry Group appreciated the opportunity to make submissions to the
Victorian Government in response to proposed laws to make working from home (WFH) a right, announced by the Premier on 2 August 2025 as follows:

  • The Allan Labor Government will make working from home a right – because it works for families.
  • Premier Jacinta Allan announced the Labor Government will introduce legislation to protect the ability of an employee to work from home.
  • Under this proposed law, if you can reasonably do your job from home, you will have the right to do so for at least two days a week – public sector or private sector.
  • Enshrining work from home in law means this life-changing practice isn’t something you or your loved ones have to politely ask for...It’s a right you’ll be entitled to.
