For many Australian business owners, figuring out whether a worker is a casual, contractor, or permanent employee isn’t always straightforward. The rules are complex, the definitions are changing, and getting it wrong can lead to serious compliance issues and costly penalties. 

This fast-paced, practical webinar designed specifically for small business owners and managers. We’ll cut through the confusion and give you the clarity you need to make confident, compliant decisions about your workforce.

In just 60 minutes:

  • Clear Up the Confusion: Understand the real differences between permanent, casual, and contractor roles, and why getting it wrong can cost you
  • Stay Ahead of the Curve: Get across the latest Fair Work changes, including sham contracting risks and new casual conversion rules, to help you and your business stay one step ahead
  • Entitlements 101: From leave entitlements to wages and termination rights, we’ll cover what each worker type is entitled to (and what happens if you get it wrong)

Whether you're hiring your first employee or managing a growing team, you’ll learn how to correctly classify workers, understand their entitlements, and avoid common traps like sham contracting.

Please note that this is general information and not intended to replace legal advice under any circumstances.
