Update your processes and issue your new employees the revised Fair Work Information Statement (FWIS).
The updated version of the Fair Work Information Statement (FWIS), effective 1 July 2019, has been issued and can be downloaded from our website. The revised FWIS incorporates a number of changes and now includes minimum pay rates for non-award employees as well as information on minimum rights and entitlements and protection from discrimination and other workplace action.
Just a reminder that under the National Employment Standards, employers must give every new employee a Fair Work Information Statement before, or as soon as possible after, the employee starts working for them.
Employers should keep a record of the date that the FWIS is provided and whether it is handed personally to the employee, emailed or mailed.
