Online discussion about your annual return

The resource you are about to use was created by the Registered Organisations Commission (ROC) which has since been abolished. The regulator is now the Fair Work Commission.

All registered organisations are required to lodge their annual return of information by 31 March every year.

To assist you with preparing your organisation’s annual return, the ROC hosted an online discussion panel on Friday 29 January. The panel was made up of subject matter experts from the ROC, who provided tips on preparing a compliant annual return. The panel demonstrated how to draft an annual return using a ROC template and answered questions from representatives of unions and employer associations.

If you missed the live event or want to refresh yourself on the requirements, you can listen to the recording below.
