Ready or Not: Workplace Law Changes Every Employer Needs to Know for 2027

Join a employment law expert from Australian Business Lawyers & Advisors as they unpack the latest workplace law reforms and what they mean for employers.

With more than 43 new employee rights introduced under the Albanese Government, employers are navigating one of the most significant periods of workplace law reform in decades. Understanding where you stand as an employer, the impact of these changes, and how to respond has never been more important.

At the same time, artificial intelligence is reshaping workplaces at an unprecedented pace. While AI presents significant opportunities to improve productivity and efficiency, it also raises new and complex employment law issues, from recruitment and performance management to privacy and workplace surveillance.

More change is on the horizon. The government is set to introduce a Fair Work Court for underpayment claims, while some states are exploring a statutory right to work from home. Together, these reforms could significantly reshape Australian workplaces.

Join us as we unpack the workplace law changes affecting employers and what they mean in practice. Through practical, scenario-based discussions, you'll gain insights into managing performance and conduct issues, meeting psychosocial safety obligations, and navigating the risks and opportunities of AI. We'll also explore the reforms likely to shape workplaces in 2027 and beyond.
