Congratulations to all and can't wait for 2020! Changes to Public Holiday Substitution RulesTerms allowing an employer to unilaterally substitute a public holiday or substitute a public holiday with agreement from the majority of their staff will be removed from awards that contain them. Instead, employers and individual employees can agree to substitute another day (or part-day) for a public holiday. Public holiday entitlements will apply to the substituted day for any employees that agree. For any employees that don’t agree to the substitution, the original public holiday will attract public holiday entitlements. Food Recall PlansIt is the responsibility of all food businesses to ensure they have a Food Recall Plan in place. It is important for all food businesses to stop the distribution, sale and consumption of an unsafe food product as soon as possible to protect public health and safety. The Food Recall Tasks timeline provides a simple checklist of what to do and when. Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ)’s Food Recall Plan Template can help food businesses plan for the effective recall of unsafe food products from the food supply chain.
