Fair Work Commission

Introduction

One of the key objectives of the Fair Work Commission's What's next initiatives is to engage with the community we serve through programs involving the public, stakeholders and research groups.

The Commission undertakes a range of engagement activities that aim to encourage more productive workplaces by promoting harmonious and cooperative workplace relations.
