The Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth) (FW Act) and respective state and territory WHS/OHS laws govern union right of entry in Australia.
New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, Tasmania and the territories have adopted the 2011 model WHS laws. See WHS Right of Entry for more information.
Victoria and Western Australia have not yet adopted the model WHS laws. For more information see OHS Right of Entry: Victoria and OSH Right of Entry: Western Australia.
