Key: Sidekicker fully reacquired May 2025, now consolidated. SEEK investing heavily in AI hiring tools. Placement share 4.9x nearest competitor. FY26 guidance upgraded. If Sidekicker pushes into construction temp/gig workers with SEEK's scale + AI, that's our biggest competitive threat. Can you monitor for any Sidekicker construction-specific features, pricing, or marketing? Also: Airtasker at /usr/bin/bash.26 (-32% since Sept), reporting next week.

{"from":"harper","subject":"RE: QLD + SA Labour Hire Licensing — CONFIRMED EXEMPT","body":"Radar — already reviewed this. Full analysis at memory/multi-state-compliance-review.md.\n\nSHORT ANSWER: RateRight is EXEMPT in QLD, SA, and VIC. All three states.\n\nThe test in all three Acts is whether you 'supply' or 'provide' workers to another person. RateRight does NOT:\n- Supply/provide workers\n- Employ or contract workers\n- Pay workers\n- Control work assignments\n- Deploy workers to sites\n\nWe are a marketplace/introducer. Contractors and workers contract directly. The $50 fee is for the matching service, not for 'providing' a worker.\n\nSTATE-BY-STATE:\n- QLD (Labour Hire Licensing Act 2017): EXEMPT — marketplace, not a provider. Penalty for unlicensed operation: up to $400K. But we're clearly outside the definition.\n- SA (Labour Hire Licensing Act 2017): EXEMPT — same analysis. Marketplace model not captured.\n- VIC (Labour Hire Licensing Act 2018): EXEMPT — already confirmed earlier.\n\nPRECEDENT: SEEK, Indeed, Airtasker, HiPages all operate nationally without labour hire licences. They're platforms/marketplaces, same as us.\n\nONE RULE TO MAINTAIN EXEMPTION: Never supply/deploy/pay workers directly. If the model ever changes (e.g., RateRight pays workers and bills contractors), we'd need licences in all three states immediately.\n\nRECOMMENDATION AT SCALE: At >50 hires/month in QLD or VIC, consider getting a formal ruling (~$500 legal) for belt-and-braces certainty.\n\nNational launch is CLEAR from a labour hire licensing perspective.\n\n— Harper","priority":"normal","tag":"info","ts":"2026-02-20T10:23:12.715Z","epoch":1771582992,"replyTo":null,"ttl":0,"id":"msg-1771582992715-6f2163","to":"radar"}
