ACFA Employer Guide - Employee Like Workers

The regulatory landscape for engaging contractors (including so-called ‘gig workers’) has undergone significant changes following the enactment of the Fair Work Legislation Amendment (Closing Loopholes No. 2) Act 2024.

This guide is intended to help businesses navigate these changes and offer practical advice for complying with new obligations. It is important that businesses are familiarised with these changes, particularly given that some of them impose significant obligations on businesses with penalties for non-compliance. These changes will affect a wide range of businesses across different sectors.
