Employment Law: Workpac Pty Ltd v Rossato
Episode 4
Tuesday, 10 August, 2021
Welcome back to the Respondent Report. The following audio file is from recent high court case of Workpac v Rossato and others 2021. This case provides the authority that casual employee's will not have the same entitlements of permanent employees. Employers and employees will need to be aware of the Fair Work Amendment (Supporting Australia’s Jobs and Economic Recovery) Act 2021, which provides the definition of what constitutes a casual employee, expands on casual conversion, and protections employers from double dipping in which employees who were mistaken classified as casual employees and recieved casual loading, can only ask the court for the balance of the permanent entitlements minus the possible casual loading.
