The latest workplace injury data reveals that 17,900 serious mental health condition claims were recorded in 2024-25, representing 12.2% of all serious claims.

While claim numbers fell slightly in the past year, the long-term trend tells a different story:

๐Ÿ“ˆ Serious mental health claims have increased by 169% over the past decade
โณ Workers are away from work for a median 34.8 weeks per claim, almost five times longer than other serious injuries
๐Ÿ’ฐ The median compensation paid is $68,600, more than four times higher than other serious claims

These figures highlight the growing impact of psychosocial hazards in Australian workplaces and the importance of proactive risk management, early intervention and mentally healthy workplace cultures.

Creating psychologically safe workplaces isn't just good for employees. It's becoming a critical business, WHS and people-management priority.

Slips, trips and falls remain one of the most common causes of workplace injuries across Australia.

In 2024-25, 32,000 serious workers' compensation claims were made as a result of slips, trips and falls in the workplace.

To help employers manage these risks, Safe Work Australia has released a new Guide to Managing these risks providing practical advice on:

โœ… Identifying common hazards
โœ… Implementing effective control measures
โœ… Understanding contributing factors such as workplace design, housekeeping, lighting and work organisation
โœ… Taking a proactive approach to workplace safety

The resource also includes a downloadable workplace checklist that businesses can use to assess potential hazards.

For small business owners, it's a useful reminder that preventing injuries often starts with reviewing everyday workplace risks.

๐Ÿ“– You can access the guide and checklist via the Safe Work Australia website.

Many small business employers still believe discussing pay at work should be off limits. But the reality is an employee's pay is their information, not their employer's secret. Australian workplace laws give employees the right to discuss their pay if they choose to. They can also choose not to share that information. Employers cannot prevent employees from exercising that right through a pay secrecy clause in an employment contract.

As employers, the focus should not be on controlling conversations about pay. The focus should be on ensuring your remuneration practices are fair, consistent and able to withstand scrutiny.

Instead of worrying about employees comparing salaries, ask: Can we confidently explain our pay decisions?

Is Your Contractor Actually an Employee?

The contractor vs employee distinction used to feel like a grey area.

It's becoming less grey.

The Fair Work Closing Loopholes reforms have tightened up how employment status is determined. It's no longer just about what the contract says. It's about the reality of the working relationship.

What that means in practice:

๐Ÿ“Œ If you have a "contractor" who works set hours, only works for you, uses your equipment and is integrated into your team, the law may see them as an employee regardless of what you've both signed
๐Ÿ“Œ Employee entitlements (leave, super, notice) would then apply retroactively
๐Ÿ“Œ The ATO is also watching this space closely, particularly around super guarantee obligations

This isn't about creating problems where there aren't any but if you've got contractors you've been working with for years under the same arrangement, it's worth a review before someone else flags it.

The question to ask: if a Fair Work inspector looked at this relationship tomorrow, what would they see?

With remote work, AI-powered tools and digital workplaces becoming the norm, more businesses are using technology to monitor productivity, system usage and employee activity.

But here's the real question for business owners:
๐Ÿ‘‰ Are your monitoring practices compliant, transparent and fit for purpose?

While monitoring tools can help protect business assets, improve productivity and manage risk, they shouldnโ€™t be implemented without clear policies and a legitimate business reason.

Before using workplace monitoring technology, consider the following:

โœ… Why are we collecting this information?
โœ… Is it proportionate to the risk we're managing?
โœ… Have employees been clearly informed?
โœ… Could we confidently justify its use if challenged?

For small and medium businesses, common risks include:

โš ๏ธ Outdated workplace policies
โš ๏ธ Lack of employee awareness or consent
โš ๏ธ Inconsistent practices across teams or locations
โš ๏ธ Potential privacy concerns

As workplace technology continues to evolve, now is a great time for businesses to review their:

๐Ÿ“‹ Employment Contracts
๐Ÿ’ป IT Policy
๐Ÿ”’ Privacy Policy

The businesses that get this right don't just reduce compliance risks. They build trust, transparency and accountability across their workforce.

The Payroll Mistake Many Businesses Don't Know They're Making

Many small or medium business owners believe that paying their employees above the award rate automatically takes care of overtime, penalties and other entitlements.

Unfortunately, that's not always the case.

We've recently seen businesses discover underpayments not because they intended to do the wrong thing, but because they:
โœ… Applied the wrong award classification
โœ… Misinterpreted overtime rules
โœ… Used annual salary arrangements incorrectly

The reality is that award compliance is complex and even large businesses with specialist payroll and HR teams get it wrong.

A few questions worth asking:
โ€ข Are your employees classified correctly?
โ€ข Have salary arrangements been properly documented?
โ€ข Do your records support the hours worked?
โ€ข Have you reviewed your award obligations recently?

Getting payroll right isn't just about compliance. It's about protecting your business and your people.
