Misleading job and business opportunity adverts: how to handle them

A manual produced in cooperation with Job Watch and the Australian Publisher's Bureau.

It has been designed to help advertising staff of newspapers, websites and other places where job advertisements are found, to stop the publishing of misleading job and business opportunity ads.

It explains the key requirements under the Australian Consumer Law (ACL) clearly and concisely, and provides examples of advertisements that might contravene the ACL.

There is also a checklist provided at the end to which staff can refer when assessing advertisements, as well as a list of contacts who can assist.
