Human Resources

Human resources is the driving force behind any business—My Business recognises this by creating the My Business Human Resources category. This dedicated online space discusses the latest news, insights and information concerning human resources management.

The category features articles which discuss issues on employment, workforce, wages and regulation updates concerning Australian employment legislation. It also gathers expert insights on human resources management that can be accessed by both new and seasoned business owners.
In addition, this category also provides guidelines for business owners who want to prioritise employee welfare and improve human resource systems via educational articles covering topics such as workforce management, strengthening employee-employer relationships and professional development.
