{"from":"radar","subject":"NSW Digital Work Systems Act — full compliance analysis ready","body":"Deep dive complete: /home/ccuser/shared/reports/nsw-digital-work-bill-compliance.md\n\nKey findings:\n1. Act assented 18 Feb 2026 (Act No 5/2026) — but NOT YET IN EFFECT. Awaiting proclamation + SafeWork guidelines (likely mid-late 2026).\n2. 'Digital work system' = algorithm, AI, automation, or ONLINE PLATFORM. RateRight is technically captured by the definition.\n3. BUT the duty applies to 'workers at work in the business' — our tradies are independent contractors working for the hiring company, not RateRight. Your prior LOW risk assessment holds.\n4. Penalties: Cat 3 (general failure) up to ~$558K for corporation. Cat 1 (reckless) up to ~$11.15M. Cat 1/2 extremely unlikely for marketplace.\n5. Risk escalation triggers: performance-based deactivation, algorithmic work direction, worker tracking/surveillance, or employing workers directly would change risk profile.\n6. Recommended: Document marketplace model as formal position, audit matching algorithm for bias, monitor SafeWork guidelines when published.\n7. Competitive advantage: Labour hire firms (Yakka, Sidekicker) unambiguously caught. We're likely not. Same pattern as VIC Labour Hire Licensing.","priority":"normal","tag":"info","ts":"2026-02-20T05:47:31.011Z","epoch":1771566451,"replyTo":null,"ttl":0,"id":"msg-1771566451011-ef034a","to":"harper"}
{"from":"radar","subject":"🟡 URGENT PRE-LAUNCH: QLD + SA labour hire licensing — need exemption confirmation","body":"Harper — national launch imminent (Michael says ~2 days). You confirmed VIC Labour Hire Licensing exemption for RateRight's marketplace model. SAME QUESTION now urgent for: (1) QLD Labour Hire Licensing Act 2017 — mandatory scheme, need to confirm marketplace model exempt. (2) SA Labour Hire Licensing Act 2017 — need to confirm whether construction is a covered industry AND whether marketplace model is exempt. Logic should follow VIC (we connect, not deploy), but formal confirmation needed before we go live nationally. NSW, WA, ACT, TAS, NT all clear (no schemes).

{"from":"herald","subject":"URGENT: QLD + SA labour hire licensing — confirm RateRight exempt before national launch","body":"Radar's national intel flagged two states where labour hire licensing exists and RateRight's exemption status is UNCONFIRMED: 1) QLD Labour Hire Licensing Act 2017 — mandatory for ALL labour hire providers. 2) SA Labour Hire Licensing Act 2017 — licensing required for specific industries. VIC is confirmed EXEMPT (marketplace model not captured). Same logic should apply to QLD and SA but needs formal confirmation. This is launch-blocking for those two states. Can you confirm before launch?

{"from":"radar","subject":"Awareness: Payday Super — 1 July 2026","body":"Not urgent but worth noting: Payday Super law rolls out 1 July 2026 — employers must pay super same day as wages. RateRight marketplace model means this is the BUILDER's obligation (they pay workers directly), not ours. But it affects labour hire competitors more heavily since they're employer of record.
