More than $453 million in unpaid wages and entitlements was recovered for Australian workers in 2025-26, according to the Fair Work Ombudsman.

The figures are a timely reminder that wage and compliance obligations remain a major focus for regulators, with proactive investigations increasing significantly over the past year.

For employers, the challenge isn't just avoiding costly mistakes. It's ensuring payroll, award interpretation, record-keeping and workplace practices keep pace with ongoing workplace relations changes.

Taking a proactive approach to compliance can help businesses reduce risk, build trust with employees and stay focused on growth.

Are your workplace safety procedures keeping pace with Queensland's latest WHS updates?

WorkSafe Queensland has updated seven key Codes of Practice, covering everything from psychosocial hazards and confined spaces to safe design and risk management.

While these updates may not create entirely new duties, they set the benchmark for what regulators consider "reasonably practicable" when it comes to workplace health and safety.

The important question is: does your current WHS framework align with the latest expectations?

🎥 Watch our latest GLU video for a breakdown of what these changes mean for employers and the practical steps you should take next.

📱Getting TikToks and messages from your boss after hours might be frustrating, but does it breach Australia's Right to Disconnect laws?

That's exactly what a recent tribunal case explored in one of the first rulings on the legislation.

The decision highlights an important distinction for employers: pressure isn't always prevention, but poor workplace boundaries can still create significant risks for culture, morale and employee relations.

Watch our latest GLU video as we break down the ruling and what it means for workplaces.

💛 Today, our team came together to mark R U OK? Day and recognise the importance of meaningful conversations and looking out for one another.

We were pleased to welcome Kayleigh Frost, Associate Director of Operations at Wisdom Wellbeing ANZ, who shared valuable insights on wellbeing, connection and the role we can all play in supporting those around us. Wisdom Wellbeing ANZ provides Employee Assistance Program (EAP) services, helping people access confidential wellbeing resources when they need them most.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for the session and took the opportunity to reflect on the power of a simple conversation.

Because a conversation could change a life. 💛

⚖️ Proposed changes to Australia's non-compete laws could have significant implications for businesses.

The Federal Government's draft legislation would ban non-compete clauses for employees earning under the high-income threshold, currently $190,100 per year, potentially changing how businesses protect confidential information, retain talent and manage workforce mobility.

In this video, we explain what the proposed reforms could mean for employers, why reviewing your employment contracts may be important, and the practical considerations businesses should keep in mind as the consultation process continues.

If you have questions about how these proposed changes could affect your business, our team is here to help.
