Introduction

Note: A person making a general protections application is alleging that another person has broken the law. It is important, therefore, that the applicant ensures their claim is based on facts and is supported by evidence.

If you are making a general protections application to the Fair Work Commission you will need to identify:

  • the adverse action taken or threatened against you, and
  • the general protections provision that was breached by that action or threatened action.

Types of application

There are two types of general protections application that the Commission can deal with:

  • a dismissal dispute, and
  • a non-dismissal dispute.
