Course overview

As a business adviser (for example: accountant, bookkeeper, payroll specialist or workplace consultant) you don't need to be an expert in workplace relations to add value for your clients – but you do need to be aware of the common issues and know where to find the right information.

This course will help you:

  • give clients the right advice on pay, record-keeping and other common workplace issues
  • locate free online resources for you and your clients
  • identify and discuss problems with clients
  • assist clients in responding to an audit or investigation
  • manage your own risk and liability.
