Unions and employer associations can provide advice and support to their members, represent them in their workplace and contribute to the bargaining process. These organisations can apply to be registered under the Fair Work (Registered Organisations) Act 2009.
Registration can facilitate unions and employer organisations being able to represent the interests of their members more effectively, for example in providing advice and support on workplace issues and contributing to the bargaining process.
