HR lunchtime briefing: Working from home, AI and terminations

Stay ahead of workplace change with expert insights on working from home laws, AI risks and termination trends impacting employers today.


As Victorian workplaces enter a new financial year and election cycle, employers are facing significant legal and operational changes.

Coupled with the growing impact of artificial intelligence (AI) in the workplace and increasing risks associated with employee terminations, these developments are creating new legal and operational challenges for employers. Adam Foster, Partner in our Employment & Safety team, has also explored these issues in a recent article here.

Join us at our Melbourne office for an in-person lunchtime briefing, Working from home, AI and terminations, where Adam will provide practical insights into the new regime taking effect from 1 September 2026 and how your organisation can prepare for the evolving workplace landscape.

  • managing employee terminations and reducing legal exposure;
