“As a small business, we don’t have an HR department, but we still have to navigate complex HR and IR legislation.
We care a lot about our team dynamic and creating a positive and flexible work environment. The Chamber’s HR support has been really valuable in helping us do that.

Some members of the Workplace Relations team at the Chamber have given us so much more than we ever expected in terms of support and guidance. I would never hesitate to reach out with questions.” – Andrea Herklots, Everybody eBikes.

Practical support when you need it

Why employers choose Business Essentials

Many employers don’t need a full-time HR manager. They want trusted advice when questions arise, practical resources that save time, and access to experienced support when workplace matters become more complex.

Business Essentials gives you confidence that expert help is only a phone call away. Our Queensland-based team understands local industries, workforce challenges, and regulatory obligations.

A big aspect of membership of course is this minefield of Human Resources we have at the moment.

We go across so many different aspects – we have casuals, we have full-time – now we can travel down that path with the knowledge that we’re in good hands overall.

That HR facility is a great reason alone to be a member.
