				Thanks for a great presentation, there was something for everyone in there. The 3 newbies were quick to send me their thanks for the session. The experienced crew will have a couple of things to take away or to work on, including me. It's also provided a useful base for me to discuss with [the team] where we can improve across the board.

				We had very good feedback about the session, thankyou. It also flowed through beautifully to introducing above and below the line behaviours within teams and sites, which we did in the session after lunch. That was also very well received.

We meticulously interview involved parties, analyse evidence, and ensure confidentiality and legal compliance to provide clear, actionable results.

How do you ensure wage compliance and fairness? 

We excel in conducting precise wage audits to ensure adherence to labour laws and fair compensation practices. We review payroll records, employee classifications, and compensation structures, identifying any discrepancies or non-compliance areas. Our detailed reports offer actionable insights, allowing clients to address issues and maintain equitable wage practices, ensuring they meet their legal obligations and promote a fair workplace environment.

Are you employment lawyers?

We work in close collaboration together to infuse robust legal knowledge into our services, ensuring all your workplace strategies are compliant with Australian law as well as easily actionable and impactful. We offer legal advice and representation where required which allows us to provide comprehensive, legally informed solutions that meet the full spectrum of your HR requirements.

What are common legal pitfalls for small businesses in employment law, and how can they be avoided?

Small businesses often navigate tricky challenges like compliance with employment laws, proper management of dismissals, and handling contract issues. These areas are complex due to frequent changes in legal regulations and the intricacies of employment relationships. To keep your business on solid ground, partnering with HR experts who specialize in employment law is key. Regular consultations with our team ensure that your HR practices are not only compliant but also finely tuned to your business’s unique needs.

How do I know what my obligations as an employer are?

Understanding your obligations as an employer can vary widely based on your industry, company size, and the specific regulations of your state or territory. These obligations, covering everything from fair employment practices to health and safety standards, can be complex. We’re here to help clarify and manage these responsibilities. Our team offers comprehensive reviews and ongoing support, tailored to your business’s particular context.

I'm not sure if I've been unfairly dismissed?

If you’re questioning your dismissal, it’s essential to consider whether it might have been unfair. Unfair dismissal could involve lack of genuine redundancy, reasonableness, or adherence to proper procedures. A detailed conversation with us can help assess your situation, clarify your rights, and determine the next steps.

When employment laws change, how should I update our workplace policies to stay compliant?

Navigating changes in employment laws can indeed be daunting. Ensuring your workplace policies remain compliant requires vigilance and timely updates. To address this need, we offer specialised services designed to keep you informed and your policies up-to-date. By monitoring legislative changes and analysing their impacts, we provide tailored recommendations for policy revisions. Our team assists in integrating new legal requirements seamlessly, minimising disruptions and ensuring continuous compliance.

What specific training should I be focusing on in my workplace?

Identifying the right training for your team depends on your specific goals and industry requirements. Generally, focusing on compliance, leadership development, and skill enhancement aligned with your strategic objectives is beneficial. We can collaborate with you to design and implement training programs that address these areas, ensuring they are relevant and effective for your team’s growth and compliance needs.

How do I correctly classify contractors versus employees?

Understanding the distinctions between these classifications can be complex, involving factors such as the degree of control over work, financial arrangements, and the nature of the relationship. Misclassification can lead to significant legal and financial consequences. To navigate this complexity, we offer comprehensive assessments of your staffing arrangements. Our expert analysis ensures that each individual is classified accurately according to current laws and regulations. We review the specifics of your work relationships, provide clear guidance, and help implement necessary adjustments.

What's the best way to handle employee grievances legally?

Handling employee grievances with legality and fairness is crucial for maintaining trust and morale in your workplace. We can assist in crafting a transparent, fair, and compliant grievance procedure. This not only respects all parties involved but also fosters a positive work environment, ensuring every voice is heard and valued.
