What it means for employers
Employers should ensure that all necessary steps are taken to properly prosecute workplace claims. Failure to do so can lead to cases being dismissed for lack of prosecution.
What it means for employees
Employees must actively participate in their Fair Work claims. Failure to do so, such as not responding to correspondence or attending hearings, can result in the case being dismissed.
