This podcast is about employment rights for people in the arts and entertainment sector.  It is part of a series of podcasts Arts Law is doing in partnership with Desart on legal issues that are common to artists, art centres and organisations.

In this podcast we talk about what it means to be an employee, as opposed to being contracted or commissioned.  What are the basic rights of an employee which can be quite different from contractors.  We also look at termination of employment and superannuation. 

Donna Robinson, a lawyer with Arts Law, speaks with Edmund Burke a partner in the law firm Holding Redlich and a specialist in employment law.
