The labour hire industry

In our July article Licence to hire: Introducing the Labour Hire Licensing Bill 2017 set to shake up the labour hire industry, we looked at the key aspects of the Labour Hire Licensing Bill 2017 and the implications of this Bill for employers.

The Queensland Parliament passed the Labour Hire Licensing Act 2017 (Qld) in September 2017 and the Act will commence on 16 April 2018.

This Act is relevant to organisations which provide labour hire workers, as well as organisations who use labour hire.
