For Business

At Collective Employment Relations, we specialise in complex, sensitive, and compliance-critical workplace matters. Whether you're navigating risk, responding to issues, or planning for growth — we provide practical, strategic support grounded in employment law and real-world experience.

Practical guidance on complex and sensitive matters, including performance management, restructures, employee disputes, and termination risks. We help you stay compliant while making confident, people-centred decisions.

Professional, impartial investigations into bullying, harassment, sexual harassment, misconduct, and employee complaints. We handle these matters with discretion and care — supporting procedural fairness and minimising risk.

Support to meet your Respect@Work obligations and embed the new positive duty requirements into your workplace. We also advise on broader Fair Work compliance, including policy reviews, risk audits, and cultural assessments.

Custom-designed training sessions to build respectful, high-performing teams. We run programs on topics like conduct, leadership, positive duty, managing performance, and responding to conflict — always tailored to your people and your workplace.

We work with leadership teams to resolve persistent conflict, cultural issues, or pockets of dysfunction. From difficult team dynamics to historical underpayments or unresolved grievances — we offer honest insight and pragmatic, actionable solutions.

We provide behind-the-scenes support on workers’ compensation, capacity matters, wage disputes, unfair dismissal claims, and general protections issues. Whether you're responding to a formal claim or managing early risk, we help you navigate the process with confidence.

From classification mapping and pre-bargaining analysis to drafting and negotiation support — we help ensure your enterprise agreement is both compliant and commercially practical. We also assist with agreement reviews, FWC approvals, and implementation planning.

We manage your payroll from end to end, including interpreting rosters and timesheets, applying Award or EA entitlements, processing pays, reconciling time and attendance data, submitting STP, and ensuring every shift is classified correctly and paid compliantly.
