FAIR WORK ACT 2009 - SECT 789FH

Actions under work health and safety laws permitted

    Section   115 of the Work Health and Safety Act 2011 and corresponding provisions of corresponding WHS laws (within the meaning of that Act) do not apply in relation to an application under section   789FC.

Note:   Ordinarily, if a worker makes an application under section   789FC for an FWC order to stop the worker from being bullied at work, then section   115 of the Work Health and Safety Act 2011 and corresponding provisions of corresponding WHS laws would prohibit a proceeding from being commenced, or an application from being made or continued, under those laws in relation to the bullying. This section removes that prohibition .
