Article Abstract:

Current laws fail to protect employee benefits when companies become insolvent. Employees are certainly vulnerable when liquidation is an issue. In many instances, employees have no additional sources of income and loss of entitlements has severe consequences. Australia's Corporations Law does protect employees by mandating priorities in times of insolvency. Additional measures are being proposed at this time.
