18.01.2022 No Australian worker will ever be unemployed on our plan. Every worker can become a Workers First Recruiter and start earning an income immediately. Exclusive to Workers FIrst members, the opportunity to become a Workers FIrst Recruiter ensure that you will never be without the ability to put food on your table.... Recruiting one member to our Basic Membership ($1 per day) attracts a $28 commission. Recruiting one member to the General Membership ($2 per day) attracts a $56 commission. How many people do you know with workplace issues? Imagine for a moment that you recruit 2 people per day as Workers First Basic Members, that's $28 x 2 x 7 x 52 = $20,384 per year extra income. How many people do you know? JOIN NOW and email [email protected] for more information on becoming a Workers First Recruiter today. http://www.workersfirst.com.au//basic-workplace-cover-wf.h

15.01.2022 Outstanding result, well done.

14.01.2022 Consideration in employment contracts must be sufficient and lawful, but need not be adequate. Consideration must be sufficient, but not necessarily adequate. T...he consideration provided by both parties must be legal. A genuine promised to commit a common-law or statutory crime is not good consideration. A promise that is contrary to public policy is not good consideration. A promise to commit some non-criminal acts contrary to statute in some tortious acts are also not good consideration. In the 1933 Kings Bench case of Wyatt v Kreglinger and Fernau the employee worked for the employer for 47 years. One month before his retirement the employer promised him a pension on the proviso that he did not enter into any other employment or business on his own account in the wool trade. The employee agreed and received a pension for a decade before his employer reneged on the agreement. The court upheld the employers defence that the agreement was an unreasonable restraint on the employee. Consequently, the consideration provided the employee was not good consideration and it was a promise to do an illegal act: namely, being unreasonably restrain from competing with the employer. The contract will be unenforceable if the illegal promise provides the main consideration. Where the legal consideration only constitutes a severable and subsidiary part of the consideration that it may be possible to sever offending part and for the remainder of the contract to be enforced. This is why you need to ensure you get the right representation early. #workersfirst

06.01.2022 Well, that is the holiday period over for now. It’s now back to work for me and a blistering pace to be set for Workers First in 2020. We have a new office to m...ove to and a new initiative of pop-up clinics in rural and remote areas of Australia to give workers direct access to our Workplace and Human Rights Advocacy service. In the first weeks of January we will introduce the newest asset in the Workers First fleet as a Jayco Work ‘n’ Play mobile Work Station we will be using to facilitate meetings on site with workers at various locations. Workers First TV will also roll out in January and throughout 2020 our library of YouTube guides for workers will develop into a comprehensive how-to-guide for workers who need workplace and human rights representation. It’s going to be an exciting 2020 for Workers First, our staff, members and clients. Buckle up, 2020 is the year the vision is realised and significant changes in the way workers are represented in Australia will serve to release workers from the shackles of poor performances by the trade union movement that has let us all down for far too long without address. Welcome to 2020. Brian AJ Newman Workers First Pty Ltd

02.01.2022 I’m taking the plunge. As many of you know, I practice as a Workplace and Human Rights Advocate, and whilst I have a Law Degree (plus a few other bits and bobs...) I have not ever practiced as a Solicitor and the truth is I probably never will, but, the time has now come for me to seek admission from the Supreme Court of Queensland and be admitted to the roll of Solicitors after having fought off the temptation for many years. The grand plan beyond that is to sit the Bar Practice course and exam (necessary to practice as a Barrister) in 2021 (assuming the world still spins) and then to seek admission to the Private Bar as a Barrister. Acting thence exclusively for Workers First clients as in house Counsel (Barrister) of course. It’s been a fun journey so far, so I figured why rest here when there so much more to be achieved in life yet. I can honestly say, I love my job and whilst not even remotely necessary for the ongoing success of Workers First that I seek admission as either a Solicitor or a Barrister, I feel it would be an opportunity missed not to do this, at least for the sake of setting a reasonable standard for our children. Of course my Master of Laws Degree studies roll on as do a few other studies, but I figured this was likely give some kind of benchmark for the kids as they get closer to graduating High School and ponder their own careers. #workersfirst #doitforthekids
