"I’ve had the pleasure of working with Catie from Business Solution Hub over the past few months and have been thoroughly impressed by her expertise, creativity, and actionable ideas for our business.

Catie took the time to truly understand our needs, providing thoughtful recommendations that inspired us to take meaningful steps forward. She went above and beyond to ensure we felt supported, even when I couldn’t implement some suggestions due to time constraints, remaining patient, encouraging, and always available to help. Catie’s extensive business experience, coupled with the collective knowledge of the Business Solution Hub team, makes them an invaluable resource for any business seeking growth and innovation."

"We recently reached out to Constructive Legal Solutions for advice regarding our Employee Workcover obligations. We found their Legal knowledge, expertise and attention to detail Naveen provided was invaluable navigating these complex processes and a very stressful situation. The insights shared not only helped us comply with our obligations but also ensured a smooth transition for our departing Employee. Thank you once again for your dedication and professionalism. We look forward to working with you in the future."

Frequently asked questions

Have questions? We are here to help.

Unpaid parental leave is dependent on how long the employee has worked for you and whether their partner is also taking parental leave from their employer.

If the employee has been with you for at least 12 months at the expected date of birth of the baby, they are untitled to take up to 12 months off on unpaid parental leave. If their partner is also taking parental leave, up to 8 weeks can be taken at the same time. This 8 weeks is known as ‘concurrent leave’.

An employee can assess paid parental leave if they pass the primary carer test, work test and income test. The employee can apply to the Department of Human Services (Centrelink) for payments during this time. If they would like, you can also pay their accrued annual leave to cover some of the leave period. Note: sick and carers leave cannot be paid during this time.

There are additional changes to paid parental leave that are coming through a Bill that was passed in March 2023.

These changes will come into effect and apply to employees who have babies on or after 1 July 2023.

Parental Leave Pay and Dad & partner pay will be combined into a single 20-week pool of leave from 1 July 2023. Both parents can decide how they want the leave taken and how they will split it amongst themselves. The leave must be used within 2 years of birth/adoption.

Instead of just a single income threshold, there will now be a household income threshold of $350,000 for households to be able to access this leave.

Business Solutions Hub is by your side. Subscribe today and keep up to date with changes as they arise.

Current legislation allows employees such as those dealing with caring responsibilities, disabilities or over 55, to request flexible work arrangements after 12 months of continuous service (excl. casuals).

The following key amendments are to deter refusals and encourage genuine discussions between employer and the employee:

  • Amend procedure to include new requirements for employers to genuinely try to reach agreement.
  • New requirements for employers to provide detailed reasons for refusal plus information on alternative arrangements.
  • New dispute resolution processes, such as mandatory arbitration (including orders from the Fair Work Commission to the employer to grant the request or make other changes to accommodate the employee’s circumstances).
  • Extended application of current civil penalties to breaches.

These changes expand the operation to enable an employee who is experiencing family and domestic violence to also access Flexible Workplace Arrangements.

These changes around Flexible Workplace Arrangement only come into effect on 6 June 2023. This gives businesses time to prepare. In the next few months you should be reviewing your current practices for considering and responding to requests for Flexible Workplace Arrangements and include updating or implementing policies or procedures on Flexible Workplace Arrangements to ensure they align with the new changes.
