The end of financial year is fast approaching... So what does that mean for you as a business owner? There have been a lot of changes of late, especially when it comes to HR, so you can't afford not to be on top of things so your business is doing the right thing.

Today's special guest is Annie Cross, who is the manager of the AHC HR Connect team, a group of 8 specialised HR experts who are available exclusively for AHC members (from 7.30am-8.30pm AEST) to answer any queries they have on HR and staffing matters, all as part of their AHC membership. If we could give this team 11 stars out of 10 we would, as the positive feedback we receive from our members is outstanding! It's definitely one of the best benefits from our AHC membership.

Today Annie talks to us about what business owners should be doing right now when it comes to the EOFY lead up. We're talking about the recent minimum wage increases, which are due to be announced once the Fair Work Ombudsman has published the final determinations amending the award rates. Then there are all the payroll obligations and reporting to the ATO. And have you remembered the superannuation increase that kicks in from July 1st?

There's so much to be aware of as a business owner to ensure you are compliant - which is why so many salon owners join the AHC. We take away all the confusion and support you with great resources such as Annie and her HR Connect team - all included as part of your membership.
