Re: Stay protected and connected in 2024-2025 - Membership is now due 

As a valued and trusted ADIA member, we encourage you to stay protected and connected by renewing your 2024-2025 membership here today.

With privacy law changes and increased regulation expected to impact all businesses this year (see proposed changes to the Privacy Act), your membership and working under the ADIA Privacy (Market and Social Research) Code has never mattered more!

UPDATED WAGE RATES – JULY 1, 2024

ADIA has worked for over two decades to ensure that the market and social research industry has a stable workplace relations system that is fair and equitable to both employers and employees. 

The UWU and ADIA Market and Social Research Industry Agreement 2023- 2026 has been approved by the Fair Work Commission and is now operating as a statutory enterprise agreement. The enterprise agreement wage rates have been adjusted to reflect the recent FWC increase and apply from the first full pay period after 1 July 2024.

Developed for the research, data and insights industry and suitable for small and large organisations, this brand-new ISO 27001 Certification Program, prepares members to be audit-ready and achieve the prestigious ISO 27001 Certification for information security management.

ADIA members can access this industry-tailored ISO 27001 Certification Package at a heavily discounted price. (Please note - Certification to the Standard is not part of the program nor mandatory. This program supports small business owners and helps to ensure the organisation’s information security systems are best practice without the added cost of certification.)

NEW AI GUIDELINES AND PRIVACY TRAINING MODULES 

These Academy materials are specifically designed to bolster your team's expertise in the crucial areas of privacy law, how to respond to a data breach and the value of Service Level Agreements.

Plus, check out our Prompt Like a Boss session with Pete Williams, founder of Deloitte Digital, who goes beyond basic queries and conversations, unlocking the techniques for leveraging AI for a wide range of tasks and roles. We've also added new guidelines to support responsible and ethical use of AI which members can tailor to suit their business. 

NSW HEALTH - PROCUREMENT PROCESS UPDATE

ADIA recently met with NSW Health and would like to advise members looking to provide services to NSW Health Agencies that the Department has changed its goods and services procurement policy.  
Interested parties should refer to Section 5.2 below, which states that NSW Health agencies must use whole-of-government prequalification schemes (where those schemes apply to what the Department is purchasing).  See details via the button below.
