The Fair Work Bill received Royal Assent on 7 April 2009. The Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act), including the unfair dismissal provisions, came into operation on 1 July 2009. The provisions dealing with Modern Awards and the commencement of the National Employment Standards will come into effect on 1 January 2010.

Outlined below are the changes made by The Act to the ways in which claims for unfair dismissal will be made.

From 1 July 2009, an employee who makes a claim for unfair dismissal must do so within 14 days of the date of dismissal.

To be protected from unfair dismissal, the Act provides that the employee must:

Be employed for the minimum employment period (6 months if there are 15 or more employees and 12 months if there are less than 15 employees in his/her workplace); and

Either:

Be covered by a Modern Award;

Be covered by a Collective Agreement; or

Earn less than the high income threshold which is currently $106,300 per annum exclusive of superannuation.

There are exclusions for employees who are employed for a specified period or task; employed under a training arrangement; or demoted without significant reduction in duties or remuneration.

Fair Work Australia (FWA) will hear the applications. Until the Australian Industrial Relations Commission (AIRC) is completely phased out at the end of 2009, the AIRC and FWA will operate together. It is envisaged that any claims made before 1 July 2009 will remain with the AIRC and all claims lodged after 1 July 2009 will be heard by FWA. Appeals from AIRC decisions will be heard by FWA.

There are exemptions as follows:

The Act changes the position of small business employers. A small business is now defined as a business that employs less than 15 employees. The transitional arrangements for the Act provide that until 1 January 2011, the small business cut off will be determined as 15 full time equivalent employees. A straight head count will be used after that.

The Act does away with the distinction between probationary periods and qualifying periods. The Act provides that an employee must have been employed for at least 6 months (the minimum period of employment) to be entitled to make a claim for unfair dismissal.

The minimum period of employment is extended to 12 months for a small business employee, i.e. if employment is less than 12 months in a small business, there is no unfair dismissal claim!

The Act will require FWA to consider 4 initial matters before making a determination on the claim. They are:

Was the application brought in time;

Was the employee protected from unfair dismissal;

If the employee was a small business employee, was the dismissal consistent with the Small Business Fair Dismissal Code; and

Was the dismissal the result of a genuine redundancy.

The Act provides that a dismissal will not have been unfair if the dismissal was a case of genuine redundancy. The Act extends employer obligations in this regard when compared to the Workplace Relations Act 1996.

The decision must have been made that an employer no longer required the employee’s job to be performed by anyone because of changes in the operational requirements of the employer’s enterprise and the employer must have complied with any consultation obligations set out in a Modern Award or Enterprise Agreement.

Further, a dismissal will not have been a case of genuine redundancy if it would have been reasonable in all the circumstances to:

Redeploy the employee within the employer’s enterprise; or

Redeploy the employee within an enterprise of an associated entity of the employer.

This is significant as employers conducting a redundancy process will now have a positive obligation to consider options for redeployment. The Act retains the notion that the primary remedy in any claim will be reinstatement and compensation will only be ordered where reinstatement is inappropriate.

A failure to comply with an order made by FWA will be a breach of the Act and a remedy can be sought under the Act’s civil remedy provision.

The internet can be a wonderful way of making cash for the nascent entrepreneur and there are lots of people online who make a number of fantastic claims around the amount of cash that can be made using their scheme or method of doing business. The quandary is knowing who to trust and separating the authentic people from the scammers and frauds.

If you are thinking of setting up your own internet affair it is absolutely worth taking the time to look into as various distinctive systems as doable and go for the one that is suitable for you. It is key to as much research as you can before you part with some of your well earned cash or you could learn that it is simply a waste of both your time and cash.

In this article I am going to look at two systems presented by Tim Lowe and Andrew Reynolds as they both come highly recommended and might be the faultless place to begin if you are a novice to internet marketing. Both Tim Lowe and Andrew Reynolds are highly respected marketing gurus and they have both managed to accumulate a considerable fortune after coming from very humble backgrounds.

I will begin with a Tim Lowe review and then look at Andrew Reynolds. On his website Tim makes a number of very impressive claims on the subject of the amount of cash that can be made by using his method. Tim Lowe’s website is nicely laid out and very informative and goes into complete detail in relation to how you too can join him on the road to accomplishment. He displays his very impressive weekly and monthly results and tells you how you too can begin to make cash by using the same methods that he employs.

Like all super ideas Tim’s is very straightforward and straightforward to understand and requires close to no comprehension of computers or computer programming. Essentially by using web-ads you can begin selling “dead products” and can expect first-class returns with relatively little outlay and time necessary from you. Access to Tim’s information and expertise comes in the form of a 2 hour long DVD at the bargain rate of £69.95 and furthermore includes a package of software comprising a website creator and produce finder guide valued at more than £1000.

An Andrew Reynolds review is a little more tough as his website does not go into significant detail regarding the type of service that he is offering. One thing that is definite is that Andrew is a very clever entrepreneur and the footage of him being filmed by a camera crew as he makes more than ½ a million pounds in 5 days has to be seen to be understood.

On his website Mr Reynolds is unfortunately a smidgen vague in relation to the nature of his home small business strategy. He tells us that it has nothing to do with stocks and shares, isn’t a dot.com organization or e-mail marketing, has nothing to do with online auctions, doesn’t include investment or online gaming and isn’t merely a mad get rich scheme. Some people may perhaps find this frustrating as if his claims are correct then Andrew Reynolds is certainly a very wealthy man with lots of information to offer and at least a hint of what his home organization proposal was concerning would help to grab people’s attention. Other than that the website is professionally laid out and the film handy and informative with lots of links to some of his other sites.

Overall I favor the method taken by Tim Lowe for people new to doing business online. For the cost of a fine meal out you might begin your own internet concern and be on your way to making your first million.

Hundreds of years ago, all maps were created by people who sailed coastlines, climbed mountains, and trudged across landscapes making recordings of their elevations, distances traveled and any noticeable landmarks. Today, mapping is remarkably more complex and can use satellite data, existing maps, and all forms of reports or field information. The way these data sets are combined and used to generate visual results is usually referred to as GIS mapping software.

GIS translates to “geographic information system” and while it will use both aerial and satellite imagery to create its results, it will not do so without also having access to a whole range of measurements, and other information. GIS mapping software doesn’t always create the kinds of images most recognize as maps, but can also create charts and other images from the materials input into the GIS mapping software.

For instance, debris fields are often converted into map-like images through a GIS mapping software package. This is because all kinds of coordinates, wind speeds or current patterns, and existing measurements can be used to pose a problem which the program seeks to answer.

The best GIS mapping software will incorporate this remarkable technology, but it will also help the user to find as much data as possible. This would mean providing access to all kinds of online materials and maps, being able to perform complex analysis, and even creating highly-technical graphic renderings too. For instance, it should be able to use “layers” of imagery to create the most accurate map from the entire set of data available. It should also be able to make adjustments and even automatically edit images to make them more workable and readable.

Lastly, a good GIS mapping software package should also allow the user to manage repetitive functions and tasks by allowing “batch” processing of familiar data sets as well.
