Understanding your rights at work

Online webinar in conjunction with Maurice Blackburn (map)

Tue 3rd Aug 2021, 6:00pm to 7:00pm (1 hour)

Join the final of our current webinar series focusing on issues relevant to people with Young Onset Parkinson's. This week we discuss Parkinson's and employment rights.

As the symptoms of Parkinson’s progress it can impact how you do a wide range of things including work.

That doesn’t always mean you have to stop work before you are ready, or that your employer can dismiss you if you need adjustments to your role.

It is important to understand your rights in the workplace, including when you might disclose to your condition, what your employer should do to keep you in your job, and what your options are if you experience discrimination in the workplace.
