ABOUT THE SEMINAR

Independent contractors are again in the spotlight through the decision of the Full Court of the Federal Court of Australia (Court) to dismiss the appeal and cross-appeal in the matter of Dental Corporation Pty Ltd v Moffet [2020] FCAFC 118. The Court found that Dr Moffet fell within the extended definition of an employee under the Superannuation Guarantee (Administration) Act 1992 (Act) and that Dental Corporation Pty Limited was obliged to make superannuation contributions on his behalf.

This decision again highlights potential risks, particularly with respect to superannuation, which can arise through independent contractor arrangements.

Join Partner Matthew McKee and Senior Associate Dean Schubert as they review the Moffet decision and other recent decisions in a number of contexts. Matthew and Dean will share their views on how the employee-contractor tests apply in modern work relationships.

We will be presenting this seminar simultaneously in-person AND online (via Zoom), over both an evening and lunchtime session. Please choose which option you would like to attend by selecting the relevant ticket for either "in-person" or "on Zoom" upon registration. Please note in-person places are limited due to COVID capacity guidelines. If the in-person places are fully subscribed, you may join a waitlist and choose to access the seminar via the Zoom option.
