24.01.2022 Many employers appear unsure of employee pandemic-related entitlements. Confusion surrounding employee pandemic-related entitlements is understandable and amplified due to the differences from state to state.

22.01.2022 At Akyra we pride ourselves on long term client support and relationships. We have had the pleasure of working with the team at Keolis Downer since 2013 on a variety of HR compliance and recruitment projects.

21.01.2022 In Akyra’s experience, employers almost never deliberately underpay. It is usually due to either a misunderstanding of the relevant Award or, sometimes, a lack of attention or oversight. Employers and business owners found to be deliberately stealing from their workers will now face jail time under the new laws passed last week by the Queensland government. So, are you at risk of inadvertently conducting wage theft?... Be sure to check if your organisations wages and record keeping are compliant. For advice or assistance, contact Akyra, for an obligation-free conversation.

19.01.2022 Did you know... the majority of small businesses won’t need to pay their employees redundancy under Australian employment law, if they have fewer than 15 employees in the business at the time of the redundancy. The Fair Work Commissions ‘Small Business Fair Dismissal Code’ provides criteria to assist when determining whether there is a genuine redundancy and the required consultation steps to comply and avoid an unfair dismissal claim. Contact us at Akyra for a chat regarding all your HR questions or advice on how to manage your workforce.

18.01.2022 COVID-19 has highlighted the gap between what employees want from their employers and what employers are prioritising. Many employees are now open to, or actively looking for a new job more attune to their refocused priorities post-pandemic which include greater work-life balance, company culture, and the salary and benefits of a role. Whereas, many employers are perceived to be more focused on financial health, technology, and job security during the current pandemic. So the... question is Are you at risk of losing your employees due to lack of employer branding?
