About this title

Synopsis

So my story in brief – I got caught with my pants down I am a lot like a lot of you – it will never happen to me “I Thought” errrrrrr “Wrong” The fact is it could happen to you as it did me and remember I am in the industry and teach this stuff to my clients. I have had a toxic staff member that I had to terminate – I ended up in a consultation with Fair Work Australia – I followed the process or so I thought – I left out one little piece “Procedural Fairness” and paid the price I had a complaint from a casual staff member that went before the Fair Work Commission under the “General Protections and adverse action” sections of the act – I did not know what these pieces of legislation were all about, but I do now – I paid the price I had one of my casual staff sustain a serious injury on a site and under the work health and safety act was responsible for his rehabilitation and retraining – 3 years in the making and several hundred THOUSAND dollars later. Believe me – I paid the price I have been audited by the state payroll tax commission I Have been audited by the statutory bodies for workers compensation We have been accused by a certain union of certain untruths and had to defend ourselves We have had employees steal and do the wrong thing and had to performance manage them out of the business We have had at one stage of our business life a toxic culture to which we had to completely turn around and now we have one of the best – I paid the price by losing great talent in the process We have had four clients go bankrupt collectively owing us over one hundred thousand dollars and yet we worked through the challenge – I paid the price You name it – we have had more that our fair share of battles and we for the most part were covered with our internal systems & processes but we took some heavy financial hits along the way – But we learnt and built a framework to teach our clients. I thought I was safe – Nobody is This book will give you the blueprint for building a solid foundation around the common HR Principles that every business owner is challenged with on a day to day basis. This book may just save you from a fraction of the battles I went through – Enjoy
