What the Victorian Government's proposed work from home changes mean for your organisation – and how to prepare.
This briefing examined proposed amendments to Equal Opportunity legislation to create a new right for Victorian employees to work up to two days per week from home, with limited capacity for employer refusal.
Australian Industry Group has opposed the proposed changes and raised grave concerns that they will increase uncertainty, generate disputes and impose substantial additional costs and compliance burdens for employers in Victoria.
Our experts outlined the proposed legislation, identified key practical implications for employers and discussed the legal, operational and workforce management challenges employers are set to face.
Presenters:
Tim Piper, Head – Victoria, Australian Industry Group
Brent Ferguson, Head of National Workplace Relations Policy, Australian Industry Group
Virginia Liu, Workplace Relations Practice Lead, Australian Industry Group
