The latest legal insights & case reviews on critical HR issues
To help HR and business leaders stay ahead of Australia’s rapidly changing employment laws and reduce both financial and reputational risk, the HR Law Masterclass Conference returns in March 2026, delivered nationally across Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne and Perth.
The 2026 Masterclass will unpack the most pressing HR and compliance challenges facing organisations today, from psychosocial safety and wage compliance to AI-driven workforce decisions and Fair Work reforms.

Hear firsthand insights from Fair Work Commissioners, SafeWork inspectors, and leading employment lawyers, and benefit from real case studies, interactive scenarios, and practical frameworks designed to help you manage HR risks with confidence.
Each session goes beyond theory - delegates will test, debate, and apply solutions to interactive scenarios covering investigations, termination, performance management, and psychosocial hazards. Strengthen your organisation’s approach to compliance, safety, and culture by joining Australia’s most trusted HR law and workplace relations event.
