From 1 January 2010, employers and employees in the national workplace system are covered by the new National Employment Standards (NES).
Under the NES, employees have certain minimum conditions and the NES makes up the safety net that cannot be altered to the disadvantage of the employee.
In addition to the NES, generally an employee’s terms and conditions of employment come from a modern award, agreement, award and agreement based transitional instruments, minimum wage orders, transitional minimum wage instruments, state or federal laws.
