Fair Work Act & Modern Awards
Fair work act 2009
The Fair Work Act 2009 (‘FW Act’) and the supplementary Fair Work Regulations 2009 were created to ensure there is a balanced framework for cooperative and productive workplace relations; one that promotes national economic prosperity and social inclusion for all Australians.
The FW Act and Regulations do this by providing workplace laws that:
are fair to working Australians
are flexible for business
promote productivity and economic growth for our future economic prosperity
take into account our international labour obligations
ensure a safety net that is fair and relevant
ensure workplace agreements that undermine the safety net can never again be a part of the national workplace relations system
help employees balance work and life commitments by offering flexible working arrangements
enable fairness at work and preventing discrimination in the workplace
achieve productivity and fairness by emphasising workplace-level collective bargaining between the employer and employees and their representatives.

National employment standards (NES)
The National Employment Standards (also known as the NES) cover everyone in the national workplace relations system. They started on 1 January 2010.
The National Employment Standards are 10 minimum conditions for employees. Together with the national minimum wage, they are a minimum safety net for employees. They include minimum entitlements for leave, public holidays, notice of termination and redundancy pay. An employee’s minimum entitlements can also come from a modern award or agreement.

Modern awards
Modern awards are those awards created under the national workplace relations system which relate to specific industries or occupations. Together with the National Employment Standards, they provide a fair and relevant minimum safety net of terms and conditions.
The first modern awards were created as part of an extensive review conducted by the Fair Work Commission's predecessor, the Australian Industrial Relations Commission. They came into effect on 1 January 2010.
