About WorkChoices Solutions

WorkChoices Solutions has been developed as a consequence of Industrial Relations changes that came into effect as of 27 March 2006. The new legislation, Workplace Relations Amendment (Work Choices) Bill 2005 (Cth) introduces a new system known as WorkChoices. The reforms are without a doubt the most radical industrial relations changes in over 100 years.

With over 1000 pages of provisions and regulations WorkChoices Solutions has been designed to provide a comprehensive and practical guide to the new industrial relations systems to assist employers and employees in understanding these overwhelming and perplexing changes.
