Do you know which Industrial Relations system applies to your business?

If your business is a sole trader or a partnership (an unincorporated business) the NSW industrial relations laws apply.

Federal industrial relations laws apply to all businesses defined as 'constitutional corporations', generally known as Pty Ltd or Ltd companies.

A constitutional corporation is a body incorporated under an Australian law and engaged in, or substantially engaged in, trading or financial activities. Generally, these are companies which carry out commercial activities with a view to earning revenue. Incorporated associations and co-operatives may also be constitutional corporations if they have trading or financial activities.
