๐Ÿ“œ Employment Dispute Resolution Bill 2007

Assented toLABill 23927 September 2007

The Employment Dispute Resolution Bill 2007 establishes a framework for the Western Australian Industrial Relations Commission (WAIRC) to provide dispute resolution and mediation services for employment disputes. It aims to offer an informal, accessible, and efficient process for resolving workplace issues.

Impact

Employers, employees, and organisations in both the federal and state industrial relations systems are affected. It matters because it provides alternative dispute resolution options outside of the federal and state industrial relations acts.

Key Changes

["Enables the WAIRC to provide mediation services with the consent of all parties involved.", "Allows for written referral agreements for the WAIRC to deal with specific disputes.", "Enables the WAIRC to provide alternative dispute resolution according to federal workplace agreements."]
