Support Through Challenging Times

During the challenging COVID pandemic period, the Association redoubled its efforts to provide members with access to expert one-one industry advice on compliance, industrial relations, technical and practical issues. Through almost 2 million email notifications, ASIAL communicated breaking news and information to members through its extensive communication networks and relationships within government and the industry. Unfortunately, due to the COVID pandemic many of ASIAL’s scheduled face-to-face industry events were unable to be held. However, in their place the Association organised a series of virtual webinars and videos to keep members informed. Among the topics addressed were COVID-19 and Workplace Impacts presented by the Fair Work Ombudsman; COVID-19 Strategies for Recovery and Business Advice presented by CPA Australia; a Legislation and Investment Update by Australian Super; An introduction to Tenders; Mental Health in the Security Industry; Horizon Part 1, The Big Challenges and Part 2, Beyond the Horizon; plus regulatory updates covering Central North Queensland, NT, VIC, SA, WA and QLD. A limited number of Industry Breakfast Briefings were held in NSW, ACT, TAS and QLD due to COVID-19 restrictions.
