In New South Wales the new Act and Regulations came into effect from 1st September 2003.  Part of those regulations means considerable change to the way sales staff are employed.

From now on, it will not be possible to employ any salesperson until such time as he or she has completed three units of competency in order to obtain their registration certificate.
