With Australia’s COVID-19 vaccination rollout underway and the increasing availability of vaccines, the focus is on opening up businesses and along with that yet another challenge for employers…. How do they manage these requirements as people enter their establishment – employees, contractors, visitors and guests? The first step is to get your head around the complex legal issues and what are the requirements in each state ie in NSW and VIC industries such as Education and Care Workers, Aged Care & Healthcare Workers, Airport Workres and certain Trainsport Workers will […]

Contractor Onboarding, what does this even mean?  There are multiple components to onboarding a contractor, I will dive in below… Organisations or suppliers – Organisations are the companies that provide services to your company.  Commonly organisations or suppliers will provide to your company insurances to confirm they are insured should anything go wrong while they provide a service. Some companies will need to hold more insurance coverage than others.  Most common in Australia for example is Public Liability Insurance, Professional Indemnity Insurance, Business Insurance, and Workers Compensation Insurance.

Issuing keys is very easy to do, a person walks up and asks for a key, the key is issued and off they go. I remember the first time I came across an issue with key issuance. It was a High School where the keys were kept in a cupboard back then behind reception. An employee would walk up and ask for the key to the ute, the key was issued, noted on a piece of paper and then the worker would go off with the ute. Eventually, the worker […]

Contractors may now be on-site and not signed in correctly. Notifications […]

With more people working from home there has been a lift in the requirements of customers to have employees complete inductions. What types of inductions are customers using for employees? If I could break them into three categories I would call them Simple online inductions General online inductions Complicated online inductions Simple online inductions are really a series of questions that can be answered with some cleverness built-in allowing workflows to flow giving depth to the simple online induction. There is normally no pass/fail rate just questions to answer with […]

It will not be long until we will all be back to some form of normality. When we get back to the place of normality we all desire not everything will be the same as it was in the past. Historically we have been asked to gather information when people signed in their presence on-site remotely for Biosecurity.
