If we never heard the word “Covid” again, I’m sure we would all be very happy. However, it continues to impact everything we do, and most significantly in the employment space. Current issues include:

- Around half of the decisions published by Fair Work each week feature Covid related issues including return to the office directives, discrimination and vaccination
Now is an important time to review your policies and practices and get on the front foot
