23.01.2022 FWC decision on Domestic Violence Leave - 5 days unpaid per year 26 March 2018 The Fair Work Commission has decided that domestic violence leave will be covered by modern awards.... As part of its four-yearly review of modern awards, The Fair Work Commission has ruled on domestic violence leave. The FWC has decided that workers covered by the awards will now be able to access five days of unpaid domestic violence leave a year. The circumstances faced by employees who experience family and domestic violence require a special response and family and domestic violence is a community issue and requires a community response, the FWC said in its summary. While the drafting of a model term that would give effect to the decision is yet to be finalised, its not too soon for HR professionals to begin preparing their organisations. What should HR do? HR professionals/ employers should prepare for the changes by reviewing and updating existing policies and procedures to incorporate the new entitlement. It may also be appropriate to seek professional training to understand how to deal with situations where employees are vulnerable and know how to best deal with a situation and employees who suffer family and domestic violence. It is also recommended that employees be given information as to how the entitlement will interact with their existing leave. What evidence is required to access family and domestic violence leave? While being entitled to leave is one thing, accessing it is another. Specifically, employees who want to seek domestic violence leave can be asked to provide evidence. Evidence could include a document issued by the police service, a court, a doctor (including a medical certificate), district nurse, maternal and child health care nurse, a family violence support service, a lawyer or a statutory declaration. It is important that this information is kept confidential, except where disclosure is required by law to prevent a serious threat to the life, health and safety of any individual. Who does this change apply to? Only employees who are covered by a modern award will have access to the new entitlement. The Federal government has already flagged amendments to the Fair Work Act 2009 to ensure that the entitlement can be accessed by all national system employees. This does not mean that employers couldnt adopt the changes to their leave policies, to support their employees not covered at this time. The entitlement will be available to both permanent and casual employees alike and will be available in full at the commencement of each 12 month period. However, unlike other forms of leave, domestic and family violence leave will not accumulate from year to year. Like the other protections offered by the Fair Work Act, an employee is protected from any form of adverse action as a result of having exercised the right to take unpaid domestic violence leave. https://www.fwc.gov.au//awardsmo/2018fwcfb1691-summary.pdf

12.01.2022 The uncertainty ahead of us is unprecedented as they say. Daily, we are restricted more than ever before. There are closures and bans. People losing their jobs. The future is unknown. Tonight further restrictions have been imposed. What will this mean for the places we go to weekly, the people who work in these industries. ... From years ago working as in house counsel for a retail group, I learned an important and invaluable lesson: diversify. At that time, and not that long ago, things were starting to ramp up with online shopping. The company knew, from its competitors, that if they didnt change the way that you work/trade/operate, they would not survive in a recession. Well played. So here we are. Faced with a pandemic - many services/industries forced to close. But lets look at how we can keep moving forward - for example, cafes have started offering takeaway. What about delivery? There may be options available to your industry. Lets look at those options. There will always be hard times. We are all in this together - globally. Please stay well and reach out if you need to talk. Sometimes a quick chat can be the comfort we need when times are tough. Best wishes Melissa Demarco
