Guidelines v2.1 in effect — 27 March 2026

Do you actually know
where your PALM gaps are?

Most Approved Employers haven't done a structured internal check since the new Guidelines landed. This assessment walks you clause by clause through both the Deed and v2.1 Guidelines — so you know exactly where your risk sits.

Privacy & data handling — tightened
Employer accountability — floor raised
Worker welfare obligations — expanded
Your maturity score — unknown?
What's included

A proper gap analysis.
Not a checklist.

Compliance Console generates a risk-weighted self-assessment from the actual Deed and Guidelines text. Every obligation scored, every gap surfaced, every risk prioritised — delivered as a professional PDF you can act on immediately.

Deed & Guidelines v2.1 pre-loaded
Both documents already built into the assessment. No uploading, no setup — log in and start answering.
Multiple-choice across every clause
Structured questions for every obligation — not open-ended. No compliance background needed.
Risk-weighted maturity score per obligation
Every clause scored 1–5 against its risk weight. You see your overall maturity score and which obligations need the most attention.

The v2.1 Guidelines have been in effect since March 2026.

The Department of Employment & Workplace Relations expects Approved Employers to operate against the current framework. A structured gap analysis is the fastest way to know where you stand and what to fix first.

Common questions

Do I need a compliance background to complete this?
No. The questions are written in plain language, structured as multiple choice. If you manage operations, HR, or compliance for an Approved Employer — you can answer them.
How long does it take?
Most employers complete the assessment in 90–180 minutes. You can save your progress and return — you don't have to do it in one sitting.
What do I get at the end?
A professional PDF gap analysis report. Section-by-section findings, a risk-weighted maturity score, and prioritised recommendations you can act on immediately.
Is this a subscription?
No. One-time payment. One gap analysis report. No recurring charges, no lock-in.
We already have internal compliance processes.
That's great — this complements them. An independent structured assessment gives you a defensible record and often surfaces gaps that internal reviews miss.
