The ways in which HR and other leaders can be held personally liable for workplace issues continue to evolve in light of recent legislation and court rulings. This webinar unpacks the key risks and how to mitigate them.
Among the many Coronavirus-related issues employers are facing this week: unions are 'naming and faming' organisations for their leave responses; leaders must be more inclusive with remote teams; minimum wage timing is in question; and the FWC is minimising face-to-face proceedings.
Organisations often have unrealistic expectations when workplace conflicts arise, handballing problems to HR functions, but this webinar explores what HR's role should – and shouldn't – involve.
More than a century after the first International Women's Day, employers still have a mixed response to workplace gender equality, but it's not the time for complacency.

Costly legal disputes continue to highlight the many risks employers face when managing, disciplining, or dismissing employees while they are absent, injured or incapacitated. Attend this webinar for an up-to-date review of the legal framework applying to workplace absenteeism, injury and incapacity, and lessons from recent case law.
