IMPORTANT NOTICE: The information outlined below applies to employees and employers who are under State industrial relations jurisdiction. Since the commencement of the federal government's workplace relations laws on 27 March 2006, employers who are constitutional corporations (e.g. a Pty Ltd or Ltd company) and their employees are now covered under federal industrial relations jurisdiction. You can also contact the Workplace Rights hotline on 1300 737 841 or visit www.workplacerights.qld.gov.au for information on your workplace rights. |
The Queensland Workplace Rights Ombudsman provides information and advice to Queensland workers and employers about their workplace rights and obligations, and to promote fair and equitable practices in Queensland workplaces.
Whether you’re a worker or an employer the Ombudsman provides impartial and independent advice and information on both the State and Federal industrial relations systems.
The Queensland Workplace Rights Ombudsman’s Office operates the Workplace Rights hotline on 1300 737 841 (formerly the Fair Go Queensland Advisory Service hotline).
To further assist Queenslanders, the Government has also developed the Compare What's Fair online award comparison calculator as a guide for employees to compare state awards against Australian Workplace Agreements (AWAs).
For employers, the calculator allows them to ascertain whether or not they are offering a fair equivalent to the award package.
