Ask people who the most important person in AI transformation is, and you'll hear the usual answers: the CTO. The CIO. Maybe a Chief AI Officer.

Dr. Hossein Rahnama's answer? The head of HR.

His reasoning cuts through the hype: AI transformation isn't a technology problem. It's a people problem. You need the right people, with the right attitude, willing to build in a fundamentally new way. And the old model of hiring, structuring, and developing talent simply doesn't work for what's coming.

The organizations that win with AI won't be the ones with the biggest tech budgets. They'll be the ones whose people leaders redesigned how teams think, learn, and build.

HR isn't a support function in the AI era. It's the front line.

Ghosting job applicants is a surefire way to damage your employer brand.

But when you’re an HR professional or hiring manager drowning in a mountain of CVs, sending a thoughtful reply to every single person just isn't realistic.

You want to give candidates the respect they deserve, but you don't have enough hours in the day.

That’s why Employment Hero built our AI-powered recruitment agent to do the heavy lifting for you.

By using our automated responses, you can keep every applicant in the loop without adding a single ounce of friction to your daily workload.

Building a roster without seeing your live revenue is the fastest way to accidentally blow your wage budget.

To fix this, we’ve transformed the sales data page in Employment Hero into a live dashboard that compares your shift costs directly against real-time sales.

We’ve also squashed the awkward "fake leave request," meaning your team can now check their projected leave balances for any future date with a single tap.

It’s all about instant numbers, smarter scheduling, and zero guesswork.

It's easy to get caught up in the headlines about AI replacing jobs.

Speaking at Canva’s AI Vision event, our CEO and Co-Founder, Ben Thompson shared a more optimistic perspective - and the reality looks completely different on the inside.

AI isn't destroying jobs, it's fundamentally changing how work happens. Instead of replacing teams, it's unlocking the capacity for people to do more meaningful work.

Human employment drives the economy. AI can make the day-to-day easier and more valuable for our workforce.

You want to do work that’s interesting.

Work that adds value.

And inputting the same information over and over into different spreadsheets. That’s not worth your time.

National Minimum Wage looks like the simplest calculation you run.

Then a worker sacrifices salary into their pension.

Another spends 15 unpaid minutes cashing up after close.

Nobody spots the error until an inspector does.

Underpayment is rarely deliberate, but it is heavily penalized.

With the Fair Work Agency wielding new inspection powers this year, innocent errors across disconnected systems can quickly land your business in hot water.

This National Payroll Week, we're helping you fix the problem before it hits your payslips.

You'll learn the four critical checks to run before your next pay cycle from Jeni Morris, Phil Harbage, Nicola Denison, and Sarah Sharpe.
