HRS Connect

Wishing everyone a Happy Holidays as we wrap up for 2024! We would like to take this opportunity to thank all the wonderful clients and partners we’ve had the pleasure of working with this year. We will be taking a break over Christmas, recharging the batteries to do it all again in 2025! We hope you also have time for a well-earned break. We’ll be back in early January. 😊 #HRSConnect #HappyHolidays

It's been a busy few months at HRS Connect but we're back to share some more (hopefully) helpful and interesting content! Here's our summary of this recent article from HRM Magazine, highlighting the challenges both employees and employers are facing around managing annual leave balances. The average full-time employee in Australia has nearly 16 days of unused annual leave, with over a fifth having accrued four weeks or more. ELMO's Employee Sentiment Index found employee barriers to taking annual leave include: • Rising workloads • Financial pressures • Job security concerns High annual leave balances can impact organisations through: • Increased financial liabilities • Potential burnout and decreased productivity With the holiday season approaching, it is a great time to encourage and support your team members to take a well-earned rest. Promoting a culture that values downtime can enhance overall wellbeing and productivity. As always, if you need any HR support or advice, please do not hesitate to get in touch with our friendly team 😊 #HRSConnect #EmployeeWellbeing https://zurl.co/nGl4

Why is company culture so important? Company culture is more than just a buzzword; it's the heartbeat of an organisation and the invisible force that shapes our work environment. It’s the difference between dreading Monday mornings and feeling excited about the week ahead. It's the supportive colleagues who turn into friends, the leaders who inspire us to be better, and the shared values that make us feel like we are part of something bigger than ourselves. It’s celebrating successes and navigating challenges together, as a united team. A strong, positive culture fosters collaboration, innovation, and resilience and can transform an organisation, turning it into a place where people are not just working, but thriving. This is why investing in company culture is not just important, it’s essential. #CompanyCulture #Workplace #Leadership #EmployeeEngagement

HRS Connect was thrilled to sponsor Nexus Care Inc’s annual Golf Day last week! ⛳️ Providing essential services like food relief and emergency financial aid, it was an honour to support the incredible work Nexus Care does for those in need. Our team had a blast on the course (shoutout to James Clark for joining us!), met some fantastic people, handed out prizes, and only managed to lose a few golf balls to the trees! 🌳 Thanks for the opportunity and all that you do, Nexus Care!

Exposure to frequent, prolonged, or severe stress from psychosocial hazards can put your employees at risk of psychological and/or physical harm. As an employer, it is crucial to recognise these hazards and understand your obligation under Work Health & Safety laws to eliminate or minimise psychosocial risks so far as is reasonably practicable. Effectively managing these risks not only protects the health and wellbeing of your employees but may also reduce turnover and absenteeism and enhance organisational productivity and performance. Navigating the complexities of psychosocial risk management can be daunting, but that's where we come in. At HRS Connect, we assist organisations in identifying psychosocial hazards and managing the associated risks, ensuring a safe and supportive work environment.
