  • WorkCover That Works with Mark Stipic
    Vikki and I met Mark Stipic (The WorkCover Guy) via Greater Dandenong Chamber of Commerce events. We stayed in communication via this SEMBA South East Melbourne Business Associates page. 
    We at Office National Dandenong decided to enlist his services. He and his team discovered that we had been classified incorrectly, which resulted in us receiving a reduction in premium which definitely justified our decision.
    Mark and his team are experts in all things WorkCover, including:
    ✅ Understanding the WorkCover system
    ✅ How your WorkCover premium is calculated
    ✅ How injuries and claims impact your business
    ✅ How to prevent injuries and ensure people don't take unnecessary time off work
    Mark and his team can show you how to overcome the toughest barriers in Return To Work, seriously reduce WorkCover costs and achieve sustained success.

  • How to avoid staff fraud in your business - with Jeff Gordon from Prestige SME Solutions
    Fraud can devastate good people, destroy people's businesses and livelihoods. Think this could never happen to you? We hope it doesn't. But don't leave that up to chance. Find out how to protect yourself from someone who has the expertise and experience we can learn from. 
    In his 25 years Financial Controller experience covering a vast variety of industries & companies, Jeff has seen Fraud first hand, done fill-in project work for sacked senior Finance Fraud people and researched this topic extensively.
    By nature, Jeff is a forensically focused person so management were fortunate to have him at the "coal face" of their business sometimes detecting questionable practices by some employees.
    Jeff is passionate about this topic as he hates to see Business Owners ignore this potential risk to their business, possibly losing their business and/or marriage, hates to see cheats in senior positions and also hates to see staff lose their jobs because of just one corrupt fellow employee. 
    Jeff is Author of the very popular Fraud Prevention E-book "Could Staff $Fraud Ever Close My Business?" In his tutoring on this topic, many clients have avoided suffering from some of staff illegal practices.
    Jeff assists many business owners from not getting "ripped off" and gets great satisfaction when fraudsters are caught by good implementation of systems and procedures!
    Jeff is happy to send you a free E-book so if you are interested you can contact him at www.prestigesme.com.au.
