On Thursday 23 July 2026, Mandi Xu (Partner), Shijing Wong (Senior Associate) and Sara Ibrahim (Lawyer) hosted an online seminar on AI and the Future of Workplace Relations.
It has recently been reported that up to two in five applicants are now using artificial intelligence to assist with unfair dismissal and general protections claims (and the real figure is likely higher), alongside a surge in claim volumes before the Fair Work Commission.
This signals more than just a shift in behaviour. It points to a fundamental change in how workplace issues and disputes are initiated and managed. In many ways, this could represent the most significant transformation in workplace relations since the introduction of the Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth).
This fireside chat webinar unpacked exactly that - Mandi, Shijing and Sara covered practical risk management and the broader implications for employers, HR teams, in-house counsel and executives
