If you are made redundant, and your employer does not consult in accordance with your EBA or Award (whichever applies), you may still be able to file an application for unfair dismissal remedy – but you must file within 21 days.

If you are made redundant and your employer consults you cannot file an application for unfair dismissal remedy, even if you think the employer unfairly targeted you, but you may be able to file an application under the General Protections provisions in the Act.

If you are made redundant and you have access to a redundancy trust fund, such as CIRT, the employer is responsible to ensure that the amount of money you receive is at least as much as you would be entitled to under the redundancy provisions in your agreement, or the National Employment standards (whichever is the greater).
