Key regulatory changes, compliance obligations and practical guidance for Australian organisations in 2026.

Compliance Unwrapped 2026

Regulatory expectations are changing, and organisations are increasingly expected to demonstrate how they manage compliance risks in practice, not simply through policies and procedures.

Safetrac’s Compliance Unwrapped 2026 report brings together key legislative developments affecting Australian businesses, helping HR, Legal, Risk and Compliance teams understand what’s changed, what applies to their organisation and where action may be needed.

Inside the report, you’ll explore:

  • How we manage people: Psychosocial hazards, Respect@Work obligations and the right to disconnect.
  • How we manage data: Privacy Act reforms, AI governance, automated decision-making and cybersecurity obligations.
  • How we manage organisational accountability: Greenwashing, mandatory climate disclosures and modern slavery risks.
  • How we interact commercially: AML/CTF Tranche 2 reforms, unfair trading practices and whistleblower protections.
  • Special obligations: Child safety standards and safeguarding requirements.

The report also includes key regulatory dates, relevant authorities and practical actions to help organisations review their compliance priorities.
