The conference theme is: ‘Welcome to the Future: New Ways of Working and Regulating Work’.

The regulatory landscape and governance of work has seen a marked emphasis on compliance-oriented and future-focused regulatory reform in areas, such as work health and safety, workplace equality, and wage theft.

Long anticipated technological and social changes and challenges are impacting work and posing questions about the efficacy and adaptability of current regulatory frameworks. This ranges from the rapid transformations in the context for and content of work by AI, to the shifting boundaries between working and private lives, and the prevalence of the gender wage gap.

Please save the date for what is set to be a conference featuring analysis and debate on the future-focused world of working and workers in Australia.
