FAIR WORK ACT 2009 - SECT 789FH
Actions under work health and safety laws permittedSection 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 .
