Post - Restructures

Some companies or organisations may undertake the restructure process if they have identified a change in their structure, operations or positions, is required.

Whilst undertaking this process, it is important for employers to follow a best practice approach to avoid risks. It is important to note that most awards and registered agreements have a consultation process for when there are major changes to the workplace. To summarise consultation requirements include:

- notifying employees who may be affected by the proposed changes;

- providing employees with information about these changes;

- discussing steps taken to avoid negative effects on employees;

- considering employees’ feedback about the changes.
