    Join us for a relaxed evening discussing IR cases over cheese and wine!

    Like a book club, we will choose a case to start our discussions off (usually based on an interesting factual scenario, novel legal principle and/or really good writing).

    Our first case is Audrey Campbell v GOLD TIGER LOGISTICS QLD Pty Ltd [2024] FWC 913.

    Case Club is also a space to share your own favourite cases and discuss the decisions that made you think.

    Everyone is welcome.

    ALERA, together with our State and Territory societies, is pleased to present the second of four National professional development masterclasses on Discrimination.

    “Sex Discrimination in 2026: From Complaint to Commission”

    Commissioner Sarah McKinnon will discuss the Fair Work Commission’s sexual harassment jurisdiction including pathways to access, trauma-informed processes, potential outcomes and common issues that arise in dealing with claims. She will also touch on other areas of the Commission’s jurisdiction where sexual harassment can arise.

    Sarah McCarthy, State Chambers will explore practical approaches to managing workplace discrimination complaints across the grounds of sex, age, race and disability. Sarah will outline the complaint pathways available to employees, including the Australian Human Rights Commission and State and Territory anti-discrimination boards. Sarah will explain what employers can expect when responding to and defending a claim. Sarah will then trace the full arc of a discrimination matter, from the initial complaint process through to litigation.

    The webinar will be moderated by Nicholas Wilson, workplace relations consultant and former FWC Commissioner.

    This webinar will feature a live Q&A, giving members the chance to engage directly with leading experts in industrial relations.
