澳洲裁员法律

carolyn

请问澳洲公司在公司能正常运作，而员工也没有犯错的情况下，裁掉员工吗？公司裁人需要遵循什么法律吗？

信息太少了，不好判断，你能展开点说吗？
workplace relations act 对redundancy 就有相应的规定的。

For NSW

Redundancy
What is a redundancy?

Redundancy occurs when the work performed by an employee is no longer required to be done by anyone.

This can happen because:

    * the job is replaced by technology
    * the business is restructured and the job no longer exists (Note: this is a common excuse for redundancy, regardless if the company's situation)
    * you can no longer afford to retain the employee due to economic circumstances.

There is a minimum scale of severance payments in most awards which is identical to that provided by the Employment Protection Act 1982. The Act applies to all permanent employees under NSW awards who work for an employer with more than 15 employees. Employers with less than 15 employees are exempt from these provisions.
Scale of Severance Payments
Continuous Service         Under 45 years
Weekly Pay         Over 45 years
Weekly pay
Less than one year         Nil         Nil
1 year but less than 2 years         4 weeks         5 weeks
2 years but less than 3 years         7 weeks         8.75 weeks
3 years but less than 4 years         10 weeks         12.5 weeks
4 years but less than 5 years         12 weeks         15 weeks
5 years but less than 6 years         14 weeks         17.5 weeks
6 years or more         16 weeks         20 weeks

The relevant state award or agreement can provide for greater entitlements than the Act, so make sure you pay the greater entitlement, if appropriate.

You are required by law to consult with your employees or their representatives when restructuring the workplace. Opportunities to discuss the changes and ways to avoid redundancy such as retraining, redeployment and counselling should be offered to your employees.

看来只要不是太小的公司, permanent employees 被裁掉还是有法律依据来要走路费的.

连续工作2年以下的和没有一样。

给4周的工资遣散，和给4周的notice解雇没区别啊。。

连续工作2年以上，才有4周的notice，还有3周的遣散费，共计7周的啊。。
