Workplace and privacy: selected regulatory sources reviewed in September 2026

A dated starting point for employers and legal teams: positive-duty guidance, psychosocial hazards, the right to disconnect and serious invasions of privacy. These are existing measures, not announcements that each changed this month.

What an update tells you

  • The official source and jurisdiction checked.
  • Whether a measure is proposed, awaiting commencement, in force or guidance.
  • The relevant effective date where verified.
  • What the development may mean for a factual brief.
  • How Everguard can assist and which decisions remain with your advisers.

Our monthly review covers relevant Commonwealth and state or territory sources. Each edition identifies its actual coverage. A scheduled review is not confirmation that every source has been checked. Material that cannot be verified is not presented as a confirmed change.

How Everguard can help

We can scope factual enquiries, interview witnesses, review supplied records and prepare source-referenced reports for employers, insurers and legal teams. An investigation can clarify facts that inform a response. It does not itself certify compliance or replace legal advice.

General information, not legal advice. Check the official source and seek advice on its application to your circumstances.
