Workplace Relations | SCHADS Reform Briefing Series: Understanding the Changes for Home Care Disability Employers

The Fair Work Commission has proposed one of the most significant reforms to the SCHADS Award in its history.


Join Amplify Alliance's Workplace Relations specialists as they explain what the proposed changes mean for employers, what is changing from 1 October 2026, and how your organisation can begin preparing now.

Our first session will focus on the proposed changes affecting Home Care employees working in Disability Care, including the changes scheduled to commence from 1 October 2026, what they mean for employers and how to begin preparing.

What we’ll cover:
What the Fair Work Commission has proposed—and why. 
Which employers and employees are affected first. 
What changes are scheduled from 1 October 2026. 
What your organisation should be reviewing now. 
How Amplify Alliance will continue supporting Members through the broader SCHADS reforms.

Our specialist will also provide an opportunity for live Q&A.

Who should attend?
Whether you're responsible for HR, payroll, workforce planning or operational leadership, these sessions will provide practical guidance and the opportunity to ask questions directly to our Workplace Relations specialists.

The SCHADS Reform Briefing Series is a practical webinar series supporting employers covered by the SCHADS Award to understand the proposed reforms, their potential workforce implications and the steps employers should consider before implementation.
