Navigating such important legal issues requires specialist HR Management knowledge and support.

Speak to our team of Tasmanian HR Management experts today, who are here to help.

AHR is here to get in the trenches with you.

Industrial Relations (IR) and Workplace Relations can be two areas of a business that are complex and can be quite time consuming in many circumstances. The AHR team have experienced HR staff who can visit your workplace and carry out disciplinary action meetings, provide professional documentation, conduct dismissals and navigate the complexities of Industrial Relations, to ensure your business incorporates employee related compliance.  

When working through the management and complexity of IR, The Fair Work Ombudsman has a number of steps that must be followed in a specific order in IR cases. As a small business owner, it’s easy to find yourself missing steps, or not handling issues in the way that Fair Work require, this can unfortunately lead to your decisions being legally overturned.  

We recognise that when you’re a small business with a small team, it’s much harder to reprimand an employee and then work alongside them in the days to follow.  AHR will be your HR support team and act as an external third party that has no relationship or emotional connection with any of the parties. This will ensure that where possible we minimise risk to you, your brand and your business, and the IR process is carried out according to current legislation.

Workers Compensation

Workers Compensation claims within your business can be stressful when trying to manage paperwork and conversations.  The AHR team can liaise with doctors, assist with return to work plans, and agreements on meaningful duties. Our team can cover all areas of Workers Compensation Claims from the moment the application is made through to completion of the claim. The AHR team are here to save you valuable time.

Comprehensive Investigations

Employee disputes and misconduct are common in any workplace. Allegations of harassment, discrimination, bullying, and fraud can present significant challenges. AHR conducts thorough workplace investigations tailored to your business needs. We manage every step, from initial complaint assessment to final report, ensuring a thorough and unbiased investigation.

Industrial Relations Advice and Internal Representation

In the complex world of IR, we will provide expert advice and support to you on matters relating to performance management, disciplinary action, and matters pertaining to sick or injured workers. We can also conduct workplace meetings, and represent you in internal IR matters.

Managing Disciplinary Actions

When disciplinary action is necessary, AHR ensures the process aligns with current Industrial Relations laws. Our team conducts investigations to support fair, justified, and legally compliant disciplinary measures and then if necessary, can assist with running a Formal Disciplinary process.

Fair Work Representation

AHR recognise how difficult and confusing workplace investigations can be. We will represent your business to the workplace regulators in matters of unfair dismissal, harassment or discrimination claims, equal opportunities claims, or any other workplace relations situations. We will be your trusted and contactable experts who will advise you in relation to compliance investigations.

Workplace Investigation

 We understand all businesses are unique, and not all businesses require a full time HR team member. When workplace issues arise, the AHR team will step up and do the leg-work in your incident investigations including responding to complaints of harassment, discrimination, or bullying.

The strategic approach

When reviewing your business strategy with a lens to the future, allow us to work with you to develop and implement IR strategies, including redundancies, contracting, and restructuring to ensure you are on a journey that supports and delivers your long term strategy for your business.

Our Tasmanian-based team works with clients across Australia, and we have established relationships with providers in most states to ensure we can provide timely and effective support, even if we cannot assist immediately or experience delays.
