Workplace View

Welcome to the October 2020 edition of Workplace View.

• Our lead article looks at a recent case where an employer’s oversight in not issuing an executive employee with a new employment contract (or written contract variation) when her position changed resulted in the employee being entitled to reasonable notice costing the employer more than AU$1.1 million.
• Our second article provides an overview of JobKeeper 2.0 and what this means in respect of JobKeeper enabling directions and agreements.
• Our third article discusses how employees’ paid personal/carer’s leave should now be calculated based on the well-publicised case of Mondelez Australia Pty Ltd v AMWU & Ors [2020] HCA 29.

We hope you enjoy the October 2020 edition of Workplace View.
