Directors Duties: lessons from ASIC v Bekier [2026] FCA 196

The Federal Court’s decision in ASIC v Bekier & Ors [2026] FCA 196 is a significant reminder for directors and officers of the elements of their duty of care under s180(1) of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) (Corporations Act).

Flexible work and EPL risk: lessons from recent Fair Work Commission decisions

Since the COVID-19 pandemic, many workplaces are encouraging employees to return to the office to reinforce the importance of collaborative, face-to-face work and promote a positive workplace culture.  
As a result, many workplaces are implementing and re-examining their internal hybrid work models and flexible working policies to ensure they align with the current work landscape post-COVID-19.  
As organisations reassess hybrid working models, disputes are increasingly being heard before the Fair Work Commission. The outcomes of these matters provide timely guidance on how employment practices are being scrutinised and where risk is emerging from an EPL perspective.
