Aussies Will Be Able To Take 10 Days Paid Family Domestic Violence Leave From Next Year

Australians will be able to take up to 10 days of paid family and domestic violence leave next year after the Albanese Government passed a bill on Thursday, making good on one of its election promises. The amendment to the Fair Work Act 2009 updates the current National Employment Standards of five days unpaid leave to a full 10 days paid leave for full-time, part-time and casual employees per year. It passed through Federal Parliament on Thursday and is expected to be fully enacted on February 1, 2023. Employment Minister Tony Burke

Over 11 million workers will be able to access this leave starting in 2023 for 10 days every year – whether you’re full-time, part-time or casual. (4/5)
