The FWC is Australia’s national workplace relations tribunal. As an impartial body, the FWC hears employment related disputes, interprets industrial legislation, sets minimum working conditions such as the minimum wage and modern award entitlements, and hears matters related to Enterprise Agreements (EAs).
Claims to the FWC, including unfair dismissal, general protections and bargaining disputes can be very stressful and costly for a business. If you have received a claim, consider whether you need to engage a representative from the Victorian Chamber, or if you have the time, access the member resources to confidently represent yourself.
