background

The employer and employee sign the employment contract, but there is no job description, no written document that the employee must meet expectations. In the following year, the employer finds that the business is not growing, so the employer sets a sales target for the employee, who will be fired if the employee fails to meet the target. In the following three months, the employee only meets the target in one month, so the employer fires the employee without notice after three months.

Question

What rules are not followed by employers in the recruitment process according to Australian employment rules? If an employee applies to the Fair Work Commission for assistance, what employment actions can the employee claim the employer did not follow?
