The release comprises versions of the Fair Work Ombudsman knowledge article "Award coverage for employees of embassies & consulates" (KRN K600567), now archived. The article states that the Fair Work Act 2009 applies to employees of foreign States, individual diplomats and consular officers, except in Western Australia, subject to immunities under international conventions. It says the Miscellaneous Award can cover drivers, cooks or caterers, cleaners, gardeners or maintenance workers, clerical workers and nannies, and that other work requires contacting the FWO. Listed cases include Kumar v Consulate General of India [2018] FCCA 7 and Republic of Italy v Benvenuto [2018] FCAFC 64. Revision history shows version changes, including an update noting the Miscellaneous Award now covers these workers after a Full Bench decision, and a February 2020 note about a provisional Commission decision. Internal banners on escalation and enquiry-logging appear, some redacted under the irrelevant-information exemption. The release is partial, with metadata and a large amount of unrelated Chinese-language text.
