When businesses walk the tight rope of HR Risk.
A critical management function is to assess risk. Risk are those activities, either internal and/or external, of influence in your business. According to Drake Int., 70 % of a business operating expenses are attributable to workforce costs, making human resource activities high on the risk matrix agenda.
Be safe, not sorry that you did not identify and eliminate your HR risks early.
Navigating wage compliance.
Labour Laws in Australia are the most complex in the world.
Navigating to get to the right industrial instrument can be a needle in a haystack if you are unfamiliar with Australian workplace laws.
The consequences of not getting wages right can lead not only to underpayments but also over payments of wages. Both scenarios can significantly impact your bottom line.
Employee’s performance = Business success.
Employees crave direction, appreciation and communication.
Recognise and exercise these core leadership fundamentals and build an engaged workforce; retain high performers and avoid turnover as a hidden assassin.
Employment contract with different purposes.
Different types of employment contracts serve different purposes. For employers, it is important to be aware of these differences to ensure that the contracts you have in place are reflective of your business’ needs. Your business may be inadvertently implementing employment contracts that do not reflect the actual employment relationship or the needs of the business. In addition to the obvious operational issues, getting it wrong could find you in breach of the applicable modern award or National Employment Standards or on the receiving end of an unfair dismissal application.
Transparency.
Communicating an employee’s responsibilities will provide your business with enhanced customers service opportunities.
A structured position description will have both parties on the same page and eliminate the hidden cost of poor productivity.
