Staying on the right side of the Fair Work Ombudsman

It’s no secret that the Fair Work Ombudsman (FWO) has always targeted businesses that get workplace compliance wrong. However, now that the regulator has only intensified its focus on this issue and increased its investigation and prosecution activities, all employers are on notice. This eBook, created by our experts, is a must-have guide for businesses that explains the ins and outs of compliance mistakes, the consequences, and how to avoid them.

Ensuring you’re compliant

How would you know if you’ve missed something? You might think you’re following all the rules, but even the smallest compliance error can prove costly. In the pages of this eBook, you’ll find an in-depth look into the FWO’s recent activities, the trends that are appearing, and how businesses might respond to them.

No one is off-limits

The FWO has proved time and time again that it doesn’t matter if you have one or 1000 employees, your business must be compliant with all legislation. If companies that are backed with large teams of HR resources can get it wrong, then it’s easy to see how a smaller business can get caught out.

Protecting your business

Publicly naming and shaming those who get it wrong has served as a warning from the FWO for all employers to get their houses in order. Not only can compliance issues hurt businesses financially, but they can also cause irreparable reputational damage. This complete guide is the first step to protecting your business and ensuring you stay on the right side of the FWO.
