Member Exclusive Webinar: The 2026 Compliance Crunch

Three major compliance shifts are hitting Australian businesses right now. Payday Super startsvery soon. Victoria's Work From Home laws kick in September. And wage theft is a criminal offence with penalties up to $8.25 million. The Australian employment law has become a lot more demanding - there’s a lot for businesses to navigate and not much room for error.

Join HR Command and APPA for a practical session to understand how to navigate these changes. No legal jargon. Just straight answers.

 

Webinar details:

Date: Wednesday, 8 July 2026

Time: 11AM AEST | 1PM NZST

Duration: 60-minute presentation + 15-minute Q&A

 

In this webinar, we’ll cover:

  • Payday Super
    It's coming. From 1 July, super must hit employee funds within 7 business days of each payday. Quarterly payments are done. We'll explain what's changed, the new penalty regime, and how to check your payroll is set up correctly.
  • Underpayment Risks
    Intentional wage theft is now criminal. We'll cover the line between honest mistakes and criminal conduct, why award classifications are the #1 trigger, and how to audit your payroll before the FWO does.
  • Victoria's WFH Laws
    Employees who can work from home get a legal right to 2 days per week from 1 September 2026. We'll explain who's covered, how to assess requests, and your WHS obligations.
  • APPA Member Q&A
    Bring your questions! Drop any questions you may have for the HR Command team in the registration form so they can answer your question live in the webinar.

 

If you’re a HR Manager, Owner or Operations Manager of an organisation with 5-100 employees, this webinar is a must-attend. If you aren’t, that’s no matter - this webinar will still benefit you by keeping you up to date on important compliance matters.
