"...it's obviously fairly radical change to the contracting situation in Australia, I think for the most part they're quite clear, but if you have any questions about you should seek advice. You may end up with civil penalties being imposed on you or the employer. And you may also find yourself inadvertently hiring someone as a full time ongoing employee when you in fact only wanted them for a fixed term. And that has other consequences for the bottom line of your organisation. So if in doubt, get some advice." Chris Parkin (5wentworth.com/barristers/christopher-parkin/)
