The Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth) (“FWA”) and the Fair Work Regulations 2009 (Cth) (“FWR”) set out what an Employer must do when they wish to terminate the
employment of an Employee. For small businesses, an Employer will be required to comply with the Small Business Fair Dismissal Code. This means that, when choosing to let an Employee go, an Employer may be required to comply with the FWA, FWR, the relevant Award and the terms of any employment contract if applicable.
