Swansong for unpaid internships?
Under the Fair Work Act the regulations concerning unpaid work are clear and a recent lawsuit in the US serves as a good reminder why.
Two former Fox Searchlight Pictures interns, Alex Footman and Eric Glatt, have successfully sued the distribution company for their unpaid work on the set of academy award winning film Black Swan. A movie which grossed more than $300 million worldwide. Find out more about the case by listening to the ABC Law Report here.
