The Fair Work Amendment (Modernising Right of Entry) Regulations 2019 take effect on 1 July 2019. They require new entry permits to include a photo and signature of the permit holder. The Fair Work Commission is changing its processes to enable this.

As a result of the change, no applications for a Right of entry permit will be accepted under the existing system from Wednesday, 26 June 2019.

Applications under the new system can begin from Monday, 1 July 2019.
