Despite the passing of the Sex Work Decriminalisation Act 2022, your requirement to comply with legislation and regulations as a licensee or an approved manager remains in place until December 2023.
In your role as a licensee or an approved manager, you are required to comply with legislation and regulations.
These include:
- Liquor Control Reform Act 1998
- Notification for the provision of sexually explicit entertainment on licensed premises
You must also comply with other laws, including occupational
health and safety, planning and environment, migration and criminal law.
RhED offers gratuitous individual consultations (or group consultations by request) to people who work in management and ancillary positions (receptionists, house mums, emcees, dance coordinators, bussies and beyond) to provide information and support around legal obligations and providing a safe and fair workplace.
If you find yourself in a situation whereby you become
subject to the jurisdiction of the law through legal action, we advise that you
obtain the appropriate professional advice and representation. RhED is able to
provide referrals to experienced practitioners.
