Mavis recently took part in a stop work meeting that was not approved by her employer. She did so because she felt strongly about her employer not agreeing to a decent annual pay rise for her and her colleagues. The stop work meeting involved her and others forming a line at the front of the manager's building and talking about their continued resolve to get a pay rise and intermittently shouting we want more pay and we want it now over two hours. Can Mavis expect to be paid for the time she spent at her meeting? Base on your answer on common law principles, not legislative ones. IRAC Method. Australian Employment Law.
