Industrial Relations

Establishing and maintaining a relationship with your workforce is perhaps one of the more difficult aspects of being an employer.

For most businesses in Australia, no matter how many employees you have, the fundamentals of the relationship are legislated by the Fair Work Act.

In addition, Modern Awards and Enterprise Bargaining Agreements are two common but complex features of the Australian industrial relations landscape.

Employee Relations

Employee relations (ER) defines the relationship between you and your employers and employees.

PHR focuses both on individual and collective relationships in the workplace with an increasing emphasis on the relationship between managers and their team members.

Our team are expert in a wide range of common issues contractual and practical, as well as the physical and emotional dimensions of the employee-employer relationship.

ER is a crucial factor when it comes to overall organisational performance.

Good ER management translates into increased employee wellbeing (and performance). And, since employees are the engine of any organisation, you want to make sure that both employer-employee and cross-employee relations are well-maintained.
