SNew regulations for waste workers
THE NSW Government has enhanced employment protections for waste management workers by amending the Local Government (General) Regulation 2021. The changes mandate that tenderers for waste management contracts must offer employment to existing staff on terms at least equivalent to their current employment, preventing pay cuts and loss of entitlements. The amendments aim to address instances where workers faced such issues during changes in waste management contracts. The Office of Local Government will assist councils in complying with the new regulations during upcoming waste management tenders.
