  • is for 2 or more years (including extensions)
  • may be extended more than once, or
  • is a new contract:
  • that is for the same or a substantially similar role as previous contracts
  • with substantial continuity of the employment relationship between the end of the previous contract and the new contract, and either:
  • the total period of the contracts is 2 or more years,
  • the new contract can be renewed or extended, or
  • a previous contract was extended.


The changes were introduced as part of the Pay secrecy, job ads and flexible work amendments. See the Fair Work Ombudsman’s website for more details.
