ItemShifting Risk and Shirking Responsibility? The Challenge of Upholding Employment Standards Regulation within Franchise NetworksHardy, T (LexisNexis Australia, 2019)The challenge of upholding employment standards regulation within franchise networks was laid bare by the investigation into 7-Eleven. However, as the Migrant Workers’ Taskforce recently observed ‘7-Eleven is unlikely to be alone in being associated with significant wage exploitation of its franchisee employers.’1 This article seeks to unpack the apparent link between business format franchising and underpayment contraventions in the Australian context. It combines an examination of relevant case law from the past decade, with a review of other critical inquiries, investigations and research relating to specific brands and the franchising sector more generally. The final part of this article considers how, and to what extent, key provisions in the recent Fair Work Amendment (Protecting Vulnerable Workers) Act 2017 (Cth) may influence the ascription of risk and responsibility within the franchising relationship.
