Final report of the review of Paid Family and Domestic Violence Leave

The Australian Government has released the final review report of the Fair Work Amendment (Paid Family and Domestic Violence Leave) Act 2022.

The review, conducted by a team at Flinders University, considered the operation and impact of the entitlement to 10 days’ family and domestic violence leave, introduced by the Government as a National Employment Standard, for all employees, including casuals.

The review found the leave entitlement is operating as intended and makes 12 findings and 5 recommendations to Government focused on improving and further promoting the entitlement within workplaces and the community.

The review report and supporting research report undertaken by BETA, the Behavioural Economics Team of the Australian Government, are available to view and download on our website.
