AISSA OBTAINS REGISTRATION AS A REGISTERED EMPLOYER ORGANISATION UNDER THE FAIR WORK (REGISTERED ORGANISATIONS) ACT 2009

The AISSA lodges an Application of Registration as an Employer Organisation under the Fair Work (Registered Organisations) Act 2009 in February, with the registration taking effect on 26 May 2014.

This registration is crucial given that Independent schools are considered ‘national system employers’ with industrial coverage now falling under the Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth). This recognition allows the AISSA to represent its members on industrial matters in the Fair Work Commission.
