Business Continuity Management:

When disaster strikes will you be ready?

Kindly hosted by

Hall and Wilcox Lawyers

Level 30

600 Bourke Street

Melbourne

Light lunch included

12:30 - 1:00 Lunch

1:00 - 2:30 Presentation [Extended]

It is reasonably certain that all firms will experience business disruptions from time to time and that most firms will face a major disruption or disaster scenario at some point. What is uncertain is the timing, nature and magnitude of the event so firms must be prepared. Effective planning can improve a firm’s resilience and minimise the impact of business disruption. Unfortunately most firms are relatively unprepared which, in today’s competitive environment, is a high risk proposition.

During this important seminar Mark Jaski (BLUESPINE) and the panel will take participants through the basic foundations of Business Continuity Management illustrated with case studies on building a business continuity framework in a law firm (Shirley Hamel, Maddocks) and surviving disaster (Rosemary Ralph, Kligers). We will also gain some insight from a risk management perspective (Anthony Kearns, Legal Practitioners Liability Committee). This is an important issue for all firms who should consider how prepared they are and take steps to ensure that an appropriate level of capability is developed and maintained.

FairWork

The Fair Work Act (Cth) 2009 commenced operation on 1 July 2009, with additional provisions, including those relating to Modern Awards and the National Employment Standards (“NES”), commencing on 1 January 2010.

Modern Awards have been created to simplify the national system of awards and apply to industries and occupations including the Legal Service Award 2010.

The NES cover 10 minimum conditions which all national system employees are entitled, including maximum working hours, annual leave, personal leave, parental leave and flexible working arrangements. Employers must ensure that existing contracts, policies and procedures are updated to reflect the obligations under the NES and any applicable Modern Awards.

In additional to the creation of Modern Awards and the NES, the Fair Work Act also introduced changes to the unfair dismissal regime. Many more employers must now comply with unfair dismissal obligations before effecting the termination of their employment.
 

In this session Paul Werner, State Director - Victoria Fair Work Ombudsman and Paul Ronfeldt, Partner, Russell Kennedy will explain "everything you need to know" in plain English.

This will be an interactive session so bring along your questions and your colleagues for what will be a most informative seminar.
