Industrial Relations and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2022
This bill implements 40 recommendations from the five-year review of Queensland's Industrial Relations Act 2016. It strengthens workplace sexual harassment protections, creates new minimum standards for gig economy courier drivers, modernises parental leave entitlements, requires gender pay gap transparency in collective bargaining, and tightens rules around who can claim to represent workers and employers.
Public Service and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2020
This bill reforms Queensland's public service employment laws based on the independent Bridgman Review. It makes permanent employment the default for government workers, gives temporary and casual employees new rights to request conversion to permanent roles, and introduces positive performance management principles that require managers to support employees before resorting to discipline.
Public Sector Bill 2022
This bill replaces the Public Service Act 2008 with a new Public Sector Act that creates a unified employment framework for the entire Queensland public sector. It implements recommendations from two independent reviews — the Bridgman Review into public sector employment laws and the Coaldrake Report on public sector culture and accountability — to make the public sector fairer, more diverse and better governed.
