Fair Work Centre — Membership Services
Australian employers get direct access to a dedicated employment lawyer, 50+ HR employment agreement and document templates, Fair Work compliance advice, and representation. No call centres. No hourly rates. Just practical employer-side support when you need it.
What’s Included
Fair Work Centre membership gives small and medium Australian businesses access to the full range of employment law services that were previously only available through expensive one-off legal retainers. Your membership includes expert legal advice, a dedicated adviser who knows your business, and a complete library of HR and employment documents — all in one fixed monthly fee.
Get qualified employment law advice on termination, unfair dismissal risk, performance management, misconduct, award obligations and more — from an employment lawyer who only works for employers. Advice tailored to your situation, not generic scripted responses.
You’re assigned a dedicated adviser who gets to know your business, your team structure and your history. Every time you call, you speak to the same person — not a rotating roster of call centre staff giving you a different answer each time.
Access and customise 50+ professionally drafted HR document templates — employment contracts, position descriptions, staff handbooks, leave policies, performance review forms, written warning letters and more. Documents built for Australian compliance, not copied from overseas templates.
Create legally sound employment documents for every stage of the employment relationship — from offer letters and contracts through to termination letters, redundancy notices and separation agreements. All templates are reviewed for compliance with the National Employment Standards and applicable modern awards.
Get practical HR guidance on day-to-day people management — handling underperformance, managing workplace conflict, structuring disciplinary processes, responding to complaints and building a compliant workplace culture. Advice from someone who has seen what works and what ends up at the Fair Work Commission.
Understand your obligations under the Fair Work Act 2009, the National Employment Standards, and the modern award or enterprise agreement that applies to your workforce. Get plain-language explanations of what you must do — and clear advice on what happens if you don’t.
Fair Work Centre is the preferred employment law advisory for small-to-medium Australian businesses — not a software platform, not a call centre, and not a government agency.
We only act for employers. That means every piece of advice, every document and every conversation is framed around protecting your business — not balancing competing interests.

Common Questions
Membership includes access to 50+ HR and employment document templates, an HR document builder, an employment document builder, and Fair Work compliance resources on every plan. Advanced and Professional plans also include direct access to a dedicated employment adviser for expert legal advice, HR guidance and Fair Work Commission representation.
A dedicated employment adviser is a qualified employment lawyer assigned specifically to your account. Unlike a call centre model where you speak to a different person each time, your dedicated adviser gets to know your business, your team and your situation — so advice is consistent, contextual and immediately useful. You call them directly when something comes up.
The document library includes 50+ customisable templates: employment contracts (full-time, part-time, casual), position descriptions, staff handbooks, leave policies, performance review forms, written warning letters, show cause notices, termination letters, redundancy letters, separation agreements and more — all reviewed for compliance with Australian employment law and the National Employment Standards.
Members can get advice on any employer-side employment law matter — termination processes, unfair dismissal risk, managing underperformance, misconduct and serious misconduct, award and NES compliance, general protections obligations, redundancy, workplace investigations and more. Advice is practical and specific to your situation, not generic information from a website.
Your adviser can explain which modern award or enterprise agreement applies to your workforce, what your specific obligations are under the Fair Work Act 2009 and the National Employment Standards, and what changes to awards or legislation mean for your business. This is especially valuable at 1 July each year when award rates and NES entitlements are updated by the Fair Work Commission.
No — the majority of members join to prevent problems, not respond to them. Having compliant contracts, the right policies and access to advice before something escalates is far cheaper than managing a Fair Work Commission claim. Members regularly use the service for day-to-day HR guidance, contract reviews and compliance questions — not just when things go wrong.
Fair Work Centre works with employers across all Australian industries — including hospitality and restaurants, retail and franchises, healthcare and medical, construction and trades, professional services and more. Award obligations vary significantly by industry, and your dedicated adviser will be familiar with the specific award and classification rules that apply to your business.
