Managing Great People

Managing Great People

Managing people – one of the hardest tasks for any business

To support your business, AgriSpecialists can assist you with:

• Employment Agreements and Job Descriptions
  
  Use our standard Employment Agreement and job description template, or let us tailor the paperwork for your individual employment needs. 

• Staff induction and training programmes
  Ensure your new staff are fully briefed on the key operating processes for your business, including covering off your health and safety practices and their on-going skills development.
• Staff performance reviews
  Managing people can be one of the hardest things to do for any business owner. Rural businesses are no different. Use our team expertise to get the most out of this valuable, but often relegated process.
• Specialist Employment Advice
  At AgriSpecialists we understand the processes and rules around employment issues and we will offer you general support, guidance and updates  in this area.  However, we are not employment lawyers, and if your circumstances mean that you need specific advice then we can suggest appropriate avenues.  We are members of the Employers and Manufacturers Association (EMA) who provide employment law advice that we can access on your behalf.  And, we certainly can help you implement any courses of action once you know you are on the right track.
• Farm Health & Safety Systems
  Meet your legal obligations (Health and Safety in Employment law has been around now for 16 years!) and create a safer working environment for you and your staff.
• Farm Policy Manuals
  As farm businesses grow it is important to simplify and standardise operations.  Formulating a Farm Policy Manual gives you the chance to critically analyse your processes. Documenting these best practices gives you an invaluable training and performance benchmark.
• Rosters and Remuneration
  Analyse and benchmark your employee work and remuneration systems.  How does your business compare with industry standards?  Fine-tuning can improve staff performance and retention rates.
