As part of a step change in managing modern award compliance, you will lead the obligations stream work as part of a broader project to configure a range of modern awards into our UKG award interpreter.
The scope of the role covers the Fair Work Act /Regulations, enterprise agreements, modern awards. It also includes state-based employment law such as long service leave, jury service, public holidays, discrimination. It doesn’t extend to super, workers compensation or safety.
