Sydney - Risk Happens: How to avoid HR disasters in 2018

The current workplace environment in Australia presents an ever-increasing range of risks that managers, executives and business owners face – both for the company and for themselves personally. It is more important than ever to not only be aware of the various areas of risk, but to be able to put into place proactive strategies to manage both corporate and personal risk.

FCB Group would like to invite you to our breakfast briefing seminar on managing risk in employment. This seminar will educate attendees on the changing legal landscape, the increased threat that managers and executives face after recent legislative reform and guidance with strategies to proactively manage and mitigate risk.

In addition to covering the basics of the long-standing key areas of risk under employment and WHS legislation, the seminar will review the impact of the recent amendments introduced by the Protection of Vulnerable Workers Bill. Attendees will then have the opportunity to apply the information provided in the seminar to a scenario through a round table workshop.

You will leave with an understanding of:

• General areas of employment risks that all organisations face
• The new state of play following the enactment of the Protection of Vulnerable Workers Bill
• The new investigative powers of the FWO
• The new fine limits faced by companies and directors
