The Fair Work Commission has confirmed a 3.5% increase to minimum and award wages - kicking in from the first full pay period on or after 1 July 2025.

If you employ award-covered staff or pay close to minimum wage, this is your cue to:
✅ Review pay rates
✅ Check employment contracts
✅ Ensure compliance before July hits

The ban on non-compete clauses is shaking up the way employers protect their business—and retain their people.

With reforms on the way, now’s the time to:
✔ Reassess how you retain and engage top talent
✔ Update your contracts and policies
✔ Build a workplace culture that people want to stay in

If you use non-competes (or are unsure if you do), this will impact you. Don’t wait to react - read our latest blog to stay ahead of the changes.

Workplace investigations can be challenging, but when handled correctly, they can strengthen trust and workplace culture instead of damaging it.

Whether it’s a policy breach, misconduct, or conflict resolution, how you approach the process matters. Impartiality, confidentiality, and fairness should always be prioritised. And in some cases, a restorative approach—through mediation or training—may be the best path forward.

Need expert guidance? Our team can help navigate investigations with care and compliance. Read the full blog: https://theworkplacecollective.com.au/workplace-investigations-a-restorative-approach-to-conflict/

✨ Thriving workplaces are built on fairness, respect, and trust. It’s not just about policies but fostering a culture where every action reflects these values.

Leadership isn’t just about driving results—it’s about creating spaces where people feel valued and included. When you lead with purpose and focus on building connection, you lay the foundation for growth, innovation, and lasting success.

At The Workplace Collective, we’re here to help you shape workplace cultures that inspire collaboration and real change. 🌟

✨ Reflecting on Collaboration and Leadership in Industrial Relations ✨

This week our founder, Natascha, proudly attended the Industrial Relations Society of Victoria IRSV AGM and Patron’s Night Dinner at the historic Kelvin Club. Honoured to be re-elected to the IRSV committee, Natascha reflects on 25 years of involvement—from President to Secretary—and the incredible connections made along the way.

The evening celebrated leadership and collaboration, with Anna Booth Fair Work Ombudsman, sharing her vision for fairer workplaces. Her insights on balancing education, compliance, and collaboration highlighted the collective responsibility we share in shaping workplace fairness.

A huge congratulations to Kelly Thomas on becoming the new President of IRSV! Also, congratulations to Amanda, Reza Azimi, Leigh Johns OAM, Leigh Howard, Lisa Anne, and Virginia Wills GAICD on their new roles. It’s inspiring to see such passionate leaders guiding the way for the IRSV in 2025.

These moments remind us of the importance of professional networks in driving positive change in workplace culture and leadership.

💼 Together, let’s continue building conscious and thriving workplaces.
