We can set minimum standards for regulated workers. This can include employee-like workers and road transport contractors.
Commences 26 August 2024
We can consider applications for regulated worker and contractual chain standards from 26 August 2024 or sooner by proclamation.
The standards we set can be in the form of:
- minimum standards orders (which are legally binding) OR
- minimum standards guidelines (which are non-binding).
The order or guidelines may provide minimum standards on matters including:
- payment terms
- insurance
- other work standards.
We can also vary or revoke minimum standards orders and guidelines. We are required to undertake a consultation process with affected entities before we make a minimum standards order. See How we consult about regulated worker minimum standards.
