Freshmark partners with the Australian Federation of Employers & Industries (AFEI) to provide expert HR and industrial relations (IR) support to members. From workplace compliance to employee management, access to these services ensure your business stays protected, informed and confident in managing the day-to-day challenges of workforce management.
Freshmark’s partnership with AFEI ensures that our members receive industry-leading advice on workplace matters that is tailored to their needs.
Over the past couple of years, we have had to call AFEI for a number of employee issues. The hotline is very helpful and professional. They have always taken the time to explain our rights and responsibilities clearly and have never rushed the conversation. They always make sure we have all the relevant information.
AFEI will help you understand your obligations, and stay compliant with Australia’s industrial relations laws. You will be able to navigate complex employee entitlements, pay rates, contracts and Modern Awards that can be very confusing. You will become proactive rather than reactive to your legislative obligations.
Our partnership with AFEI gives Freshmark members access to support that simplifies complex workplace regulations and ensures compliance.
From hiring to handling disputes, our HR services provide the essential guidance to manage your workforce effectively.
