Employment Law Essentials for 2025

With Dr Louise floyd, James Cook University

Law Seminar Series - Employment Law

Tuesday 10 June, 1.00pm - 2.00pm
Where: This is an online event

The last few years have seen more change than ever to employment law - ranging from: the positive duty to avoid discrimination; through to AI and legal work; a High Court Case on QANTAS and alleged adverse action against unions; and legislative change like Closing the Loopholes. In this presentation, our Associate Professor Louise Floyd will unpack the key aspects of those developments, along with outlining further crucial issues such as: remote work, the right to disconnect and false complaints. Dr Floyd's discussion develops the themes in her recent employment law book: Practical Employment Law (Thomson Reuters 2024).
