Fair Work Commission decisions
The Fair Work Commission is Australia's national workplace relations tribunal. It hears unfair dismissal applications, general protections claims, modern award reviews, and disputes about enterprise agreements.
What the FWC does
The FWC handles unfair dismissal applications (s.394), general protections disputes (Part 3-1 Fair Work Act 2009), bargaining and enterprise agreement matters, modern award variations, anti-bullying applications (s.789FF), and stop-sexual-harassment applications.
Why these decisions matter
FWC decisions set the precedents most Australian employers and employees will encounter. An unfair dismissal application is the most common type of formal employment dispute in Australia, and almost all of them start at the FWC.

The Fair Work Commission (FWC) is addressing changes required by the Fair Work Legislation Amendment (Closing Loopholes) Act 2023. This Act mandates that modern awards include a 'delegates’ rights term' for workplace delegates. Initially, a Full Bench of the FWC issued a standard term for all awards, but the Federal Court of Australia (FCAFC) later found errors in how the FWC implemented this. The FCAFC ruled the standard term incorrectly limited the scope of delegate representation and communication rights. The current proceedings aim to rectify these errors and ensure compliance with the court's orders, impacting nine specific awards and all other modern awards.
[2024] FWC 1699

The Commission previously proposed an amendment requiring ALDI to agree with employees on a regular work pattern.
