2025 year in review: A recap of workplace law changes and what to expect in 2026 - Gadens
This past year has brought significant changes to workplace laws. Driven by new legislation and important case law, these developments impact compliance, employee obligations and organisational practices. In this year in review recap, we highlight some developments relating to the impact of set-off clauses and restraint of trade clauses in employment contracts, considerations of what constitutes “reasonable” redeployment for the purposes of a genuine redundancy, the Fair Work Ombudsman’s payroll remediation guide, psychosocial legislation (in Victoria) and changes to employer paid parental leave and the payment of superannuation.
