  • Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth) - Level 1The Fair Work Act and Fair Work Regulations is the main legislation that governs the employee/employer relationship in Australia. It provides a safety net of minimum entitlements, enables flexible working arrangements and fairness at work, and prevents discrimination against employees.

    The independent government organisations:
    - the Fair Work Ombudsman, and
    - the Fair Work Commission
    regulate Australia's workplace relations system but have different roles. Part of the role of the Fair Work Ombudsman is to ensure compliance with Australian workplace laws (the Fair Work Act, related legislation, awards and registered agreements); the Fair Work Commission is the independent national workplace relations tribunal, responsible for maintaining a safety net of minimum wages and employment conditions.
