In this episode of the IR Simplified podcast, I talk about what has to be one of the most confusing parts of the Fair Work Act.

The role of a support pesron.

I explain the difference between an advocate and a support person, and explain how you can refuse access to a support person and still comply with the FW Act.

The FWC Full Bench decision [2014] FWCFB 613 V.A.T.E. v de Laps is mentioned, and you can read it here.

Remember to check out Industrial Relations Today, and add your name to the mailing list to be one of the first to know what’s happening and when.

The coming webinars that will be hosted by IR Simplified can be found here.

Remember to check out the Understanding Industrial Relations course, or the new one, Mastering Industrial Relations.

And finally, don’t be the only one who hasn’t subscribed to the IR Simplified newsletter. You can do that by heading here.
