Hi ,
Welcome to the latest edition of our Connect newsletter. In this issue, we recap insights from our recent Connect Session, share our updated Levy Advice Guide and provide more information on recent legislative changes that may affect you.
With the financial year now wrapped up for most employers, we’ve prepared tips to help you prepare your annual Audit Report.
You’ll find details on where to meet our team at the NSW Mining Health, Safety, Environment and Community Conference this August to discuss the important role portable long service leave can play in supporting the safety and wellbeing in the workforce.
We also invite you to join our research panel and schedule a free education session, designed to help employers comply with their obligations.
We hope you find this edition useful and informative.
