January 2013 sees the commencement of various pieces of
employment law legislation which will have an immediate impact on
the workplace.
Of particular importance are changes to the Fair Work
Act, which have altered the period for bringing claims on
termination of employment. In addition, changes have also been
implemented which entitle a dad or a partner to seek two weeks paid
parental leave.
During 2013 we will also see changes in relation to reporting
requirements under the Workplace Gender Equality Act
2012.
