Background
As you are all aware we are currently experiencing very difficult times with the spread of
Coronavirus (COVID-19) across the world and in particular here at home in Australia. The harsh impacts of COVID-19 on industries and businesses are now starting to be felt. The Federal Government introduced last night national discontinuation of all non-essential gatherings which will unfortunately see at the very least temporary closures of many businesses across Australia. The challenges we directly face both now and into the foreseeable future is how we remain trading as a viable and sustainable business, manage the health and safety of our employees and contribute to minimising the spread of COVID-19 across the general public. These are difficult challenges which unfortunately will have an impact on you as a private citizen, your business and your employees. We wanted to share with you our Information Memorandum which is designed as a general guide to assist you throughout this extremely difficult time. Within this document we provide general information about workplace health and safety and the rights and obligations of employers and employees due to making difficult business decisions. We have also identified various contacts to a range of financial and emotional support services which you may be able to access if needed. Please don’t hesitate to contact us if you need support at Sharpe Workplace Solutions by email info@sharpews.com.au or call on (07) 46915046.
