About this White paper

On March 6, 2023, the Australian government passed the Fair Work Legislation Amendment as part of the Secure Jobs, Better Pay Act 2022. This amendment covers several areas of law, one of which is a revision of the existing Fair Work Act 2009 to better address sexual harassment in the workplace.
