The Fair Work Act 2009 is an Australian law that establishes a framework for workplace relations. It aims to create fair and equitable working conditions for employees while balancing the rights and responsibilities of employers. The Act covers various aspects, including minimum wages, working hours, and leave entitlements, ensuring that workers are treated fairly. Additionally, the Act established the Fair Work Commission, which is responsible for overseeing workplace disputes and ensuring compliance with the law. It also provides protections against unfair dismissal and promotes collective bargaining, allowing employees to negotiate their terms of employment through unions or other representatives.
