Undue influence or pressure is when an employer exerts significant or inappropriate pressure on an employee to modify or alter their conditions of employment. It is unlawful for an employer to force or try to force an employee to:
- make or not make an agreement or arrangement under the National Employment Standards
- make or not make an agreement or arrangement under a term of a modern award or enterprise agreement that is permitted to be included in the award or agreement
- agree to or terminate an individual flexibility arrangement under an enterprise agreement or modern award
- accept a guarantee of annual earnings
- agree or not agree to a deduction from amounts payable to the employee in relation to the performance of work. The undue influence or pressure or coercive behaviour can be unlawful even if it does not succeed in making the person take or not take the action.
