Master Australian Employment Law: 4-Part Foundation Course

Australia has the most complex employment laws in the world.  Stop Flying Blind with Australia’S Complex Employment Laws. 

$147 (GST Inclusive) – 4 Video Modules


You’ve Downloaded the Free Checklists. Now What?

Those checklists showed you what you need to have in place. This course shows you why it all matters – and what happens when you get it wrong.

The Problem Every Australian Business Owner Faces

  • 6 overlapping laws that most business owners know nothing about
  • Personal liability that can hit YOU, not just your business (real case: one CEO paid $2.8 million personally)
  • Zero-cost employee claims that almost always result in payouts – even when you think you did everything right
  • State variations that change the rules depending on where you operate

What You’ll Discover in These 4 Essential Modules:

Module 1: Why Australia Has the World’s Most Complex Employment System

  • The 6 laws that overlap and interact (spoiler: Fair Work is just the beginning)
  • Why American or other international employment approaches don’t work in Australia
  • You’ll learn that while we refer to the NES as being 11, there are actually many more, think 16. Plus, one of them (Long Service Leave) isn’t even national at all, it’s completely state-based, despite being listed as a ‘National’ Employment Standard!

Module 2: The Hidden Legal Traps That Cost You Money

  • How Privacy Act breaches during performance management create psychological injury claims
  • State-by-state variations that could sink your multi-location business
  • The dangerous crossovers between laws that multiply your liability

Module 3: Why Smart Business Owners Still Get Caught

  • Real examples of personal liability and business costs (one case cost a business $2.8 million)
  • Why “employment at will” thinking from other countries, like the US, is costing Australian businesses millions
  • The cultural shift that makes employee claims more likely than ever

Module 4: Your Legal Protection Strategy

  • Real examples of personal fines ($7,600 for managers, HR people prosecuted) and business costs (one CEO’s actions cost their employer $2.8 million)
  • How the law actually protects reasonable business operations
  • What “proper process” really means (and why most get this wrong)
  • When to pause, when to act, and when to call for backup
