TAKE A FEW MINUTES TO ASSESS YOUR BUSINESS
Whether you have 5 employees or 500 employees, from time to time you need to take a step back from your business and address those issues that you simply don't have the time or specific expertise to address.
Consider how you would respond to the following in terms of your current business operations.
REPUTATION: What do people say about your business?
CONTEXT/DELIVERABLES: What do you do daily, weekly, monthly to make sure your business keeps working?
STRATEGY: What is the mission or strategy of the business, where will you be in 5 to 10 years?
DESIGN (authority, delegation, empowerment, roles, and structure): Is your business structured for maximum performance – is everyone on the ‘same page?’
ORGANISATION CAPABILITY: How do you attract and keep good people?
ANALYTICS: Do you have a compelling vision in place that keeps everyone focused and motivated?
EFFICIENCY: How would you rate your systems and processes …could they be improved?
COMPLIANCE: Do you know if you are compliant in terms of ethical behaviour, IR, Fair Work, OHS etc.? If not – do you know what you have to do?
WORK STYLE/CULTURE: How would you describe your culture and is everyone on board – if not, why not?
IF YOU WERE UNSURE OF HOW TO ANSWER ANY OF THESE QUESTIONS YOU NEED TO GIVE "SjB Business Consulting" A CALL

An initial short, no obligation meeting or a chat over coffee can get you started.
On Friday 26 March 2021, the Fair Work Act 2009 (FW Act) was amended to change workplace rights and obligations for casual employees.
These changes came into effect on Saturday 27 March 2021.
The Amendment Act introduces a:
· Casual Employment Information Statement
· definition of casual employment
· pathway for casual employees to move to full-time or part-time (permanent) employment.
Employers should review their casual arrangements; terms contained in contracts of employment; review patterns of hours of casuals for eligibility to offer conversion and ensure compliance with conversion provisions.

“I have worked with Steve Booth for approximately 10 years. Steve's ability to look through the noise and technical clutter and guide you to the core problems and issues is invaluable. Steve is also a great guide and mentor for running through ‘what if’ type solutions as often you are too close and simply do not see that you can be introducing a new problem. Steve has been my consistent go to person when I need objective guidance. I highly recommend Steve and will continue to use him to improve the performance of my business.”
