COV ER S TORY

Anna Cruckshank – Aubrey Brown Lawyers A trailblazer for women in law and leadership ACCORDING TO THE Law Society of NSW women outnumbered men in the Australian legal profession for the first time in 2016.

However women still hold far fewer senior leadership positions. In fact, recent research found that women make up only around eighteen per cent of equity partners, despite being equally represented at senior associate level. As Managing Director of Central Coast law firm, Aubrey Brown Lawyers, Anna Cruckshank not only represents the minority of female directors in the Australian law profession, she was also the unanimous choice to lead the firm at the age of just 37. A trailblazer right from the start, Anna is a role model for aspiring female lawyers and any business leader with a vision to do things differently for the benefit of clients, staff and their profession/industry.

Anna’s career with Aubrey Brown began in 1990, almost by chance. During her final year at Gorokan High, she was sent to the firm for a mock interview with Principal, Rod Wicks, who is a director of the firm today. Having never considered a future in law, Anna regarded the process as simply a means to “tick a box”. So she was surprised to receive a call from Mr Wicks a few months later with an offer to join the firm. She accepted the offer, after gentle persuasion from her parents, and commenced work as a law clerk and a paid scholarship to study law.

Discouraged when she was initially put on reception, Anna approached Mr Wicks with a request for more challenging work. To this

day she fondly recalls his response. He said, “You’ve got to start at the bottom and one day, when you have done everybody’s job in this organisation, you will thank me because it will have made you a better boss.” Looking back, Anna can see how this all-round experience gave her an advantage, and adopts a similar model for undergraduate law students employed by Aubrey Brown today.

Accelerated through her studies, Anna was admitted as a lawyer in 1994. She was just 22 and, typical of junior lawyers in regional firms at the time, was handling a broad range of legal matters for her own client base. However still feeling unsettled in a career she felt had been imposed on her, Anna took a year off to travel. She would eventually return to Aubrey Brown, but not before she had broadened her horizons with a law firm in the Hunter that specialised in commercial law. “That experience really opened my eyes to the fact that there were other ways you could practice law in a regional area. It also allowed me to learn and grow as a lawyer and work in some very sophisticated commercial areas, which I really enjoyed,” said Anna. Longing to return to the Central Coast, Anna met with the partners at Aubrey Brown, who were keen to have her back, and said, “Gentlemen, I’ll come back on two conditions. Firstly, make me partner and secondly, allow me to specialise.” They agreed to both conditions and so, at the age of 27, Anna returned to Aubrey Brown as partner.

By Phaedra Pym

Working twelve-hour days and most weekends, as was generally expected of partners, Anna engaged a recommended team of business coaches to help ensure she and others didn’t burn out. It was the beginning of a business reinvention process that focused on practicing law at the highest level for the benefit of staff and clients together with the achievement of a better work/life balance. Over the next few years, Anna worked towards consolidating Aubrey Brown’s multiple offices into one, whereby each lawyer and their team would specialise in an area of law rather than trying to be all things to all people. Given the level of change and the angst this created for some staff, Anna decided to work with a team of communication consultants to help her and the other partners work through the change with their team. “Through this process, one of our core strengths became our ability to communicate freely and honestly with one another. It’s one of the reasons we managed the transition so well,” said Anna. Two additional success factors were their commitment to training their lawyers and support teams to have an exceptionally high level of knowledge in the areas in which they specialise, and an investment in cutting-edge technology to ensure staff could deliver the best possible service. “Everything was done with a focus on making our client relationships and our community connections stronger,” said Anna, adding that this was also the highest priority for Aubrey Brown when he founded the business in 1944.

The nine-year transition process, during which Anna gave birth to two children and completed a post-graduate qualification, was finalised in 2013 when all staff members were moved to their current premises in Tuggerah Business Park. While there was resistance from some staff and a few opted to leave, Anna said having all those invested in the future of the business together under the one roof made them feel like a cohesive team. It also enabled the directors to start work on growing the practice and further honing the skillsets of the lawyers. The evolution process taught Anna that one of her passions and strengths, in addition to commercial law, is running a business. “I was so committed to the vision of where I wanted our business to go that by 2009, when we changed our business structure to a company, the ‘boys’ were letting me take the lead more and more and appointed me Managing Director. They told me I was the future of the business and that one day this would be my legacy.”

Aubrey Brown Lawyers has always had a strong presence on the northern end of the Central Coast. However, Anna has just announced a strategic acquisition of an Erina legal practice, which will see the firm also have a presence in Erina from July and therefore greater accessibility for businesses and individuals located at the southern end of the region. “Peter Kernan (currently with Watts McCray Central Coast) will be bringing his commercial law practice and staff to us and we’re opening a new office in the Watts McCray building. Watts McCray will maintain their family law practice and move to other premises,” said Anna. The strategy will see Aubrey Brown’s current headcount of 45

Anna Cruckshank increase to 50 with further growth planned before the end of the year. Existing lawyers will also commence a specialist accreditation process from next year. “Our goal is to be the number one law firm on the Central Coast and these strategies are aligned with that goal,” said Anna.

Passionate about the next generation of lawyers, Anna has developed strong relationships with universities and provides opportunities for students to complete their practical legal training with them. “I think we have an obligation to the legal profession to train and bring through the next generations of lawyers, so that’s in our business model,” she said. She is also very focused on ensuring all Aubrey Brown lawyers have the opportunity to do sophisticated, challenging work while simultaneously having the time to enjoy a good lifestyle. “We take the view that our staff are part of our family and as such we respect

and embrace their families too,” said Anna.

With clients throughout Australia and even overseas, Aubrey Brown is now in a position to be more selective with the types of clients they aspire to work with. The size and structure of their team is also such that it allows them to evolve their services in line with the changing ways clients want to work with lawyers and to anticipate future changes in terms of client expectations, the law and the legal profession. But one thing that will never change is their focus on the client.

“For us the client experience is paramount.

The first time a client walks through the door they come as an honoured guest. From then on, I want them to feel like they’re coming to visit friends,” said Anna, who knows – because his daughter has told her – that Mr Brown would be very proud of how far the firm has come in 74 years and the fact that they still proudly use his name today.

Premier opens Gosford’s new world-class hospital

New Gosford Hospital Tower with Car Park under construction in the foreground (picture taken May 2018) STATE-OF-THE-ART TECHNOLOGY and first-class healthcare were on show at Gosford Hospital’s new 11-storey tower in late June when Premier Gladys Berejiklian and Health Minister Brad Hazzard officially opened the new clinical tower that will transform future healthcare on the Central Coast.

“Together with the $200 million Wyong Hospital redevelopment, the $348 million Gosford Hospital redevelopment is delivering next-generation, first-class health care to the Central Coast,” Ms Berejiklian said.

“The technological advancements in the new 11-storey tower block are incredible, including - for the first time - a nuclear medicine service which will greatly improve diag-

noses for a range of conditions and speed up scans for emergency patients.

Mr Hazzard said clinicians and the community contributed to the innovative design. “The new tower has been designed with patients in mind, with privacy and comfort front and centre,” he said. “The Intensive Care Unit has the largest windows of any public hospital in the State, and a courtyard with oxygen and gas fittings means some of our sickest patients can be outside.”

The new tower features: • A new Special Care Nursery, with expanded capacity for newborn cots from 10 to 15 and pull-out beds for parents and carers;

• New Intensive Care Unit with glass screens that can be switched to opaque (instead of curtains); • A new MRI machine to diagnose stroke, cancer, infection and joint abnormalities; • Each unit has single or double rooms with ensuite and a patient/relative lounge; • Dedicated staff and patient lifts to offer more privacy.

The complete redevelopment, due to be complete by 2019, also includes a new $35.5 million carpark and refurbished spaces for allied health, cancer day unit, emergency short stay unit and cardiovascular services.

But that aside there needs to be a focus on encouraging businesses to relocate to our region.

It is here that the Central Coast Council needs to put politics aside and get on board. Throwing tantrums over the Warnervale Airport and a coal mine simply scares business people off. We are not the only region in Australia and some councils knock their socks off to bring business in.

Nine months into their term and this Council does not even have an Economic Development Manager.

Welfare does not build an economy it sucks on it.

Meanwhile, we sense a new feeling of positivity in the air particularly around Gosford. The State Government has set the scene with the revitalisation of Gosford and making some significant investment. themselves. Now investors are taking notice.

New dining destination – Saddles Mount White

Saddles Mount White overlooking the ‘lake’

Saddles fireplace with painting that inspired the design of the restaurant AFTER BUYING THE Mount White wholesale nursery, Princeton Nurseries for a reported $1.72 million in June 2016, adman and Mount White resident, John Singleton has spent considerably more building a new restaurant and carrying out improvements to the very large dam and irrigation system that will allow the well-known nursery to expand.

In redeveloping the property a new dining destination for the Central Coast has emerged on the edge of the dam, Saddles Restaurant is not an ordinary roadhouse café but a very classy eatery in a bushland setting that takes its name from the saddle chairs that line the bar, hand made by artisan saddler Heath Harris another Mount White resident and supplier of saddles to Mr Singleton’s Strawberry Hills Stud.

Designed by East Gosford architects White Dickson Architects with interior design by Michelle Leslie Design and high end residential builder Matt Blair from Killcare.

Commenting on the project Andrew Dickson said that the inspiration behind the design was a painting of an early Australian rural shack which forms the centrepiece of the fireplace.

The 120 seat restaurant overlooks a prominent waterfall feature at the front of the property, and features a large deck

space situated over the dam for waterside dining.

Mr Singleton has handed the operation of Saddles to Cameron and Hayley Cansdell the highly successful pair who operate Bombini at Avoca and Fish Dining on the Gosford waterfront.

Since opening in late May Saddles has become an instant dining destination with Mrs Cansdell commenting, “We have been

Hayley and Cameron Cansdell very lucky with the immediate response to Saddles through our social networks.

We are seeing day-trippers, business meetings, cyclists, road bikes and an incredible response from those locals living in the mountain. There has been an overwhelming response on the weekends so we are now offering takeaway options for sweet and savoury pastries, salami, cheeses, coffee, milk and bread.”

Strong support for Gosford revitalisation THERE IS NO doubt that the Minister for Planning has hit a chord following his announcements in recent months on the revitalisation of Gosford City with surveys showing that 76% of people across the whole Coast feeling positive about changes in Gosford.

Following the Minister’s announcements three reports on the Revitalisation of the Gosford City Centre were placed on public exhibition until 29th June with the Department of Planning and Environment conducting a comprehensive, multi-faceted public consultation to gauge the feeling of Central Coast residents.

An extensive advertising campaign in newspapers and radio along with the Department’s shopfront Information Centre in Gosford ensured that members of the public had every chance to find out and comment on the plans to fix Gosford.

Members of the public could read the reports, make submissions on them and answer survey questions via a website during the public exhibition period.

As well, the Department held briefing sessions with Central Coast Councillors and staff, with the Central Coast Chapter of the Urban Development Institute of Australia (UDIA), Community Environment Network, Gosford/ Erina Chamber of Commerce Directors.

The Central Coast Coordinator General, Lee Shearer along with Chamber President Rod Dever conducted a walking tour through the City and spoke to various business owners and to get their input.

Staff from the Department conducted a series of pop-up activations in the Imperial Centre Gosford speaking to shoppers.

The Department of Planning’s staff also met with numerous individuals, property owners and developers.

The results were clear: Do you feel there is positive change happening in Gosford?

Yes: 76% No: 7% Unsure 18% Would you visit Gosford City Centre more often if the Government Architect’s recommendations were instituted?

Yes: 82% No: 11% Unsure: 7% In addition to these surveys Gosford/ Erina Chamber of Commerce conducted an information session at the Central Coast Leagues Club at which 80 people attended.

Brand Bags shop owner Monica Thomson with Lee Shearer and Rod Dever during their walkabout in Gosford Interestingly Central Coast Council ran two Information Sessions, one at the former Wyong Council Chambers at which it is reported that only 2 members of the public turned up while the second, at Erina Fair saw 28 turn up.

The Coordinator General and her staff have done all they possibly can to ensure that the people of the Central Coast are well aware of what is proposed for Gosford City, and for the whole Coast and their con-

cerns have been taken on board.

With the consultation period now over we can expect that the Gosford City Centre SEPP will become effective by early September.

As investors learn that they will not have to deal with Central Coast Council and that their proposals will be taken seriously at state government level it can be expected that Gosford will become an attractive place to invest.

The three reports on public exhibition: The 2 NSW Government Architect Reports: Place Report 2 City North, which focuses on connecting the greatly expanded Gosford Hospital to the city across the rail corridor over the train station.

Place Report 3 City South which focuses on linking the city to the waterfront parklands in the city’s south.

A Consultation Paper containing the Gosford City Centre Revitalisation Proposed Delivery Mechanisms: The proposed Gosford City Centre State Environment Planning Policy (SEPP) to provide design-led, streamlined, flexible and efficient statutory development controls.

The Special Infrastructure Contribution (SIC) applied to Gosford City Centre to enable the Department to collect contributions for revitalisation of infrastructure that supports growth as the program continues to roll out. The proposal is that the overall amount of development contributions to be collected will reduce from the current S94 contribution of 4% of the value of development greater than $1 million in Gosford City Centre to 3% (2% for the new SIC and 1% for an updated local contributions plan) to incentivise development and investment in Gosford City Centre.

Another successful year at CeBIT for Servers Australia SERVERS AUSTRALIA STOLE the show at this year’s CeBIT Australia business technology conference and exhibition in Sydney in May. It was the third year for the fast growing cloud hosting company at CeBIT which each year has taken the largest exhibition space available.

“We had the usual massive crowds for our prize giveaways and created a bit of fun in an informative environment,” said Sales and Marketing General Manager, Rick Swancott.

Servers Australia invited some of their lead suppliers including Equinix, Veeam, WMware, CPanel, Plesk and HPE to join them on their stand to do product demonstrations and

show case their underlying technology which supports their new High Availability Disaster Recovery service. (HADRaaS).

“The product launch was a great success and well received by the crowds,” said Mr Swancott.

“CeBIT this year really defined Servers Australia as a leader in innovation within the Australian Cloud Market space,” he said.

Over the past few years the Tuggerah based company has been on the acquisition trail buying out a number of struggling competitors and picking up thousands of new customers many of which are high revenue customers.

The Elanora Hotel 50 years on THE ELANORA HOTEL at East Gosford has more history attached to it than a customer of today may think. And it is all about the Cusick Family.

The story of the Elanora Hotel goes back much further than 1968 when publicans Malcolm and Margaret Cusick purchased the original hotel that had been built ten years earlier. In the early days the Elanora had quite a reputation as a bit of a “roughhouse” hotel. A reputation Malcolm realised would have to change if it was going to ever emerge as a truly successful operation. So he spent much of the early years cleaning the place up and starting to build the image as a family pub which is one the hotel continues to cater for today.

Over the fifty years since, the Elanora has seen a few makeovers to cater for the changing demographics around East Gosford.

In the mid-1970s the first major renovation saw a drive-through bottle shop introduced as well as a TAB in an adjoining building, and the first ‘cook it yourself’ barbeque which were to take off in pubs everywhere.

In the ensuing years several cosmetic changes were made however the next major renovation did not occur until 2004 which saw the introduction of Relish restaurant and a full interior makeover of the bars and gaming areas and expansion and modernisation of the beer garden area.

Relish Restaurant eventually gave way to the bistro that is currently operating today.

This change was to adapt to the changing dining trends with local customers. This renovation also saw the existing TAB incorporated into the hotel itself.

During these changes over the years Malcolm continued to run the hotel with a very active involvement up until his passing in 2009. His ethos of running a pub

that families could feel comfortable in and that inappropriate behaviour would not be tolerated remained with him throughout and continues today.

Owned today by the family of Malcolm & Margaret the changes look set to continue with the current management The Cusick Family: Catherine Crawford, Michael Cusick, Virginia Clear, Damien and Nicholas Cusick understanding the importance of staying ahead of changing trends days of the club, and was also involved and tastes so are currently considering heavily in Harness Racing at the time. plans for the next upgrade to take the Hotel Malcolm was Chairman for 35 years into the next generation. and during this time was a Director of the Commenting on the Elanora’s success Sydney Turf Club from 1969 until 1998 over the years the present Licensee and and also during this period he served on manager of the Elanora, Damien Cusick, the board of the TAB and also the Board of said, “Our father always said that a good the original Thoroughbred Racing Board hotel had to serve good food and good (TRB) which was the pre cursor to the curbeer.

The move comes after establishing a second office at Erina in November last year which is managed by her daughter Christel Renton to service the wider Central Coast real estate market and in addition locate a

CENTRAL COAST BUSINESS REVIEW JULY 2018

strata management service.

“We now have a handpicked team at Helen Hughes Property with the experience and commitment to raise the professional and ethical standards that is the basis for our business,” said Ms Hughes.

With almost 40 years as a successful Central Coast real estate agent Ms Hughes said that after eight years working with a local franchise agent it was time to step up

and open her own full service office again and incorporate strata management.

“We are upping the stakes when it comes to strata innovation across the board. One example of this innovation is that we have introduced the most up to date software that enables the owner to view their account in real time remotely 24/7,” she said.

Expanding into strata management was a natural progression with an obvious gap in the market for a locally owned and operated business for what is a growth sector.

Ms Hughes said, “opening an independent local strata business was driven by the desire to offer a full service property business that is committed to exceptional standards and delivers on its promises to our clients. We always put people first at Helen Hughes Property looking after the property as though it was our own.”

“With the significant changes that took place in November 2016 to the NSW strata industry there are many strata’s that still have not caught up with the changes and may not be aware of what their obligations are providing us the opportunity to assist them review their schemes so they are in line with today’s legislation,” she said.

Sharpe DS Central Coast celebrates 10 years couldn’t do without the support of doing business within our region. We are also in what I believe the most exciting time in Central Coast business history, the investment being made to develop in the commercial and residential industries I can’t wait to see what the next 5-10 years looks like” So what does the next 5-10 years look like for Sharp DS Central Coast?

“Printing volumes as a whole, across the board don’t seem to be decreasing” continues Walker, “Black and white volumes are slowly decreasing (1-2% a year) , but as colour becomes less expensive it’s the colour volume which is rising. At the moment most businesses have found a good balance between the sharing of digital and print based information.

“We are however seeing a much larger demand for automated scanning solutions, including automating accounts payable process, and the automated storage and retrieval of digital documents, either to the cloud or onsite, we see this to continue to be an area of growth as businesses get sick of looking at their old filing cabinets looking cumbersome and taking up valuable floor space.

Sharp DS Central Coast is located at 15 Stockyard Place West Gosford and can also be found at www.sharpds.com. au or Google Sharp DS and check out some reviews.

Nathan Walker and Nigel Neubauer In July 2008 Nathan Walker and Nigel Neubauer approached the owner of Newcastle based Sharp Electronics group and negotiated the purchase of an existing client base of around 100 machines.

This also included the rights as the exclusive Authorised dealer of Sharp copiers and printers. With a staff of 4 (including themselves) they set out with a vision of having a 100% Central Coast owned and operated document solutions company.

In May 2013, with their market share starting to increase, they fought off some Sydney based competition to acquire Gosford Business Machines, another locally

owned Central coast business with a history dating back to 1972. This gave Sharp DS Central Coast the authorised dealership for the Kyocera print brand, a range of products perfectly designed to fit it with their existing Sharp product line up. All Staff were bought over from Erina to the head office in Stockyard place West Gosford.

Now 10 years later, Sharp DS Employs 14 fulltime staff, and services around 1200 machines in the Central Coast region.

Travelling with children

TRAVELLING AS A family with teenagers can be fraught with uncertainty – where do we choose? What do we do? How do we appeal to their interests? How do we engage them and make it fun as well as educational?

How do we actively promote an interest in the world around us and take them away from their technology – phones, Ipads, Xbox, PlayStation – so they are forced to spend precious time with their family members before school is over and they leave the nest?

How do we excite them about a holiday with their parents and siblings?

Having teenage children of our own and having just returned from a 4 week tour to South America with 11 teenagers in the group, we’ve stumbled upon a few winners. By choosing a destination such as South America which has so much diversity it genuinely has something to offer everyone.

By spending a precious family holiday immersed in day to day history, geography, science – our children learn so much without realising it and are able to relate these experiences directly to elements of their high school curriculum. The Amazon rainforest and ecosystems, ancient ruins and archaeology, language and culture, incredible food and “super food” to name a few.

Colourful markets that show us the lifestyle of the local Indian communities, evening shows such as Tango in Argentina (some even learned to dance Tango !) and Samba in Brazil .

Incredible meals in amazing locations.

Not to forget some down time for everyone (technology free) in places such as the lost city of Machu Picchu and the Sacred Valley of the Incas. The kids are so busy and so awestruck that conversations flow over dinner about the amazing things seen that day and it is a great way to bring everyone together. The beauty of our “Family Friendly” tour is it runs in September each year and incorporates the school holiday break.

Vale Peter Meymott Turnbull 1934-1918 Well known Gosford businessman and real estate agent, Peter Turnbull died in Gosford Private Hospital on 28th May 2018.

Born in North Sydney in 1934, Peter Turnbull grew up on a farm in Somersby where the family had moved to following the War in which his father had served with the Army.

He attended Gosford High School and became friends with many students who would become business and community leaders in Gosford.

Following National Service he began his working career with a Sydney wool company and studied accountancy at night.

During this time he bought two blocks of land AT Newport Plateau overlooking Scotland Island for sixty pounds each and selling them at a price which allowed him to backpack through Europe for two years.

Following his return in 1956 he met and would marry Arline Frazer. About that time he bought a block of land at Epping and with the help of his father-in-law built their first home.

Five years later he sold the home and bought a farm at Maidens Brush Road, Wyoming which he subsequently subdivided and built a small shopping centre, donating some of the land to the Scouts for a hall and community centre. He then bought a waterfront lot at Point Clare and built a home where the family would remain until the end of last year.

After selling the farm around 1970, he took a job with a national finance company Industrial Acceptance Corp (IAC), which became Citicorp, starting on the bottom of the ladder at their Gosford Office and in 1975 was promoted to State Manager Queensland.

He returned to the Central Coast after a few years and established Citicoast Realty in Gosford, which over the next 40 years would become one of the best known and respected commercial and industrial real

estate businesses on the Central Coast.

He retired in 1998 at age 64 and bought a farm on the mid-North Coast selling it only last year.

Meanwhile, in 1972 while with IAC he joined the Rotary Club of Gosford although shortly after Peter Turnbull he was transferred to Queensland and became a member of the Brisbane West Club but on returning to Gosford he rejoined the Gosford Club.

Peter Turnbull was a dedicated Rotarian and served two terms as President as well as serving on numerous Rotary committees of the Gosford Rotary Club and Rotary District committees and worked tirelessly on the many projects that the Club carried out.

In 2008 following a split in the Gosford Club he became a charter member of the Rotary Club of Gosford City, breakfast club that admitted women members.

He was a Director and long time supporter of the Rotary Foundation.

A Paul Harris Fellow, he conscientiously served the Rotary movement for 40 years and remained a member until his death.

Peter Turnbull was passionate about the City of Gosford and despite his age never relented advocating for it as a city of the future. In particular he worked tirelessly in support of the Gosford Performing Arts Centre which Central Coast Council agreed to build the week that he passed away.

Peter Turnbull is survived by his wife Arline daughters Julie, Ruth, Elizabeth and Katherine, sons-in- law David Tawyer and Russell Murdoch and five grandchildren.

One of the most highly visible bulky goods retail complexes at West Gosford, on the corner of Stockyard Place and Manns Road (opposite the Gosford Classic Car Museum) known as 2-4 Stockyard Place, has recently changed hands.

Held under two ownerships one was sold in an off market transaction through Raine & Horne Commercial while the other that comprise two buildings were to be taken to auction through Chapman & Frazer Real Estate but sold prior to auction.

Notifiable Data Breaches Scheme – The first results are in

By Nathan Corrigan, Account Manager, Insurance House Central Coast IN THE FEBRUARY edition of CCBR we wrote about amendments to the Privacy Act that would see the introduction of the Notifiable Data Breaches Scheme (NDBS), applying to all organizations that hold personal information from 22/2/2018. The objective of the NDBS is to improve the protection of personal information that, if disseminated, could prejudice the individual, or even be used maliciously. In the February article we detailed the definition of a data breach and the type of organizations impacted by the legislation.

If you have an affected business and were to experience a data breach , you now have a duty of notification to The Office Of The Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC), and the affected individuals of an eligible data breach as soon as practicable. Notification is compulsory unless it impacts upon a law enforcement investigation, or was determined by the regulator to be contrary to public interest. A serious breach could see fines of up to $360,000 for individuals and $1.8 million for organizations. The costs of a data breach

New tax + reporting commences 1 July 2018 – Get ready for it

could also be crippling for the organization and could include business interruption, ransom payments, incident response, third party claims, legal costs, customer notification and data reconstitution.

A recent article detailed some statistics released by The OAIC, 38 days into the NDBS. So far there have been 63 reported breaches.

Human error accounted for 32 of the breaches, 28 resulting from malicious and criminal acts. The industry exposure is also quite broad and includes health services, legal, accounting, finance, education and charities. Being new legislation it is likely that many businesses are not yet fully aware of their obligations to report, and these numbers may well increase as awareness increases.

Prudent business owners need to understand the legislation and mitigate against the risks of a data breach irrespective whether they are directly impacted by the new legislation. In addition to having robust IT security, good staff education and up-to-date policies /procedures, a good cyber insurance policy should form part of your business solution. Prompt access to expert support as well as financial protection are on offer with the right insurance protection in place .

To find out more on how to limit your exposure resulting from a data breach, and provide the necessary insurance protection for your business, contact Nathan Corrigan at Insurance House , 0410 439664 or Nathan.corrigan@ihgroup.com.au.

By David Evers, Director, Robson Partners There are new mandatory salary and super reporting requirements commencing 1 July 2018. Single Touch Payroll (STP) is a government initiative that will change the way you report on your payroll to the ATO from 1 July 2018.

Under STP, businesses are required to report on salary or wages, pay as you go (PAYG) withholding and superannuation directly to the Australian Taxation Office (ATO), electronically, and at the same time as their employees are paid.

This new streamlined reporting to the ATO will make it easier for employers to meet payroll processing obligations, and employees to view their information and lodge annual tax returns.

To help you understand how Single Touch Payroll works and get your business and employees ready for these changes, contact us to receive a copy of Single Touch Payroll Guides for Employers and Employees.

ACTU’s tired arguments threaten a return to the bad old days

By Adrian Price, Regional Manager, Australian Industry Group "RECENT ANNOUNCEMENTS FROM the ACTU show yet again that the union movement has given up on decades of community consensus that Australia needs to have a strong economy and a workplace relations system that does not impose major barriers on job growth. The ACTU's latest proposals would destroy jobs and the competitiveness of Australian businesses.

The proposals would also destroy workplace Adrian Price flexibility which is highly valued by employers and employees," Australian Industry Group Regional Manager, Adrian Price, said today.

"The ACTU wants the right to bargain across whole industries and supply chains, including the right to take industrial action.

"We would see a return to the bad old days of the 1960s and 70s when industrial action was rife and Australia had a reputation internationally as an unreliable supplier of goods and services. Australian industry was propped up by high tariffs, which protected some inefficient businesses, together with absurdly rigid and highly centralised industrial relations arrangements. We were as far from a 21st Century globally competitive economy as it was possible to be.

Importantly, though, unlike the 60s and 70s, Australia now has a very open economy,

the world has become far more connected, and global supply chains are the norm.

Gaining a reputation as an unreliable supplier would be a blueprint for multinational companies stopping their investment in Australia with consequent job losses and economic hardship.

"The right to strike at the industry or supply chain levels has never been part of the Australian system, and it must never become part of it. Since 1993 when enterprise bargaining was first introduced by the Keating Labor Government, the federal workplace relations legislation has recognised the importance of bargaining taking place at the enterprise level and of the economic problems that flow from centralised outcomes.

"The only beneficiaries of the ACTU's self-serving proposals would be militant

unions who no doubt think that all of their Christmases have come at once with the ACTU's recent major change in direction. Those that would suffer most if the ACTU's proposals ever saw the light of day would be workers, particularly those that value flexible work arrangements, and low paid workers whose jobs would be most at threat. All political parties need to act in the national interest and condemn the ACTU's proposals without delay.

"Their tired arguments are disconnected from economic reality, just like their proposal for a $50 per week increase in the national minimum wage – an increase nearly 4 times the rate of inflation. The level of wage increase proposed by the ACTU (i.e. $50 per week or 7.2 per cent) is manifestly excessive and completely unrealistic. The proposed increase is nearly four times the rate of inflation. Such an increase would inflict significant harm on businesses. As a consequence, significant harm would be inflicted on low paid workers, the unemployed and the underemployed, because their job security and employment prospects would be substantially reduced," Mr Price said.

BUSINESS TIPS

Messy pay records can bring you undone

By Warwick Ryan, Partner, Hicksons Lawyers IN OCTOBER LAST year, there was a change to the Fair Work Act which went largely unnoticed. But it presents a very significant threat to SME’s.

The legislation was changed so that – if an employee (or the Fair Work Ombudsman) claims against you for a breach of an award relating to how many or when hours are worked – and it’s found that your pay records are not compliant – then their evidence will be accepted in preference to yours.

It places small businesses (and their officers personally) in the firing line.

That amendment is on top of the existing steep penalties for failing to maintain – or worse fabricating - pay records.

An example of the latter was demonstrat-

ed recently when the Federal Court issued a penalty notice of $80,000 (and $16,000 against the director) of a small business (a single service station) in the inner West in Sydney. The penalties that were imposed were solely in relation to the fact that their pay records had been inadequate and it was clear that they had sought to retrospectively create more compliant pay records.

The frightening thing about this case is that the offence occurred in 2016. Since then, penalties have been increased; including up to $630,000 for a serious contravention (ie. where you were found to have knowingly contravened the provision and it was part of a systematic pattern.

So what is the obligation?

Focusing upon payslips, as a minimum they need to include: • the employer’s name, • the employee’s name, • employment status (ie. casual, permanent part-time, etc), • the period to which the payslip relates, • the date on which the payment was made, • the gross amount and the net amount,

• if the employee is paid: -- by an hourly rate, the payslip must show the rate for ordinary hours, the number of hours in that period that the employee was employed at that rate and the amount of the payment at that rate; -- a salary (rather than an hourly rate) the payslips should include referable hourly rate (be careful not to merely divide the weekly pay by 38 hours, if the expectation is they work more than that), and • Separately, any amount paid to the employee that is a bonus, loading, allowance, penalty rate, incentive base payment or other separately identifiable entitlement (ie. allowance), and finally • the payslip is required to show contributions to superannuation.

An omission or error of any of these, will leave you vulnerable to a fine.

What is even more galling as an employer is when – as is so often the case – it is a poorly performing employee who makes the claim and you are required to pay a penalty to them.

It’s worth tidying this up. The financial impost of getting it wrong is just too high.

FUNNY BUSINESS

A CITY BOY, Rodney, moved to the country and bought a donkey from an old farmer for $100.

The farmer agreed to deliver the donkey the next day.

The next day the farmer drove up and said, “Sorry son, but I have some bad news, the donkey died.”

Rodney replied, “Well then, just give me my money back.”

“Can’t do that. I went and spent it already, ” said the farmer.

“OK then, at least give me the donkey,” said Rodney.

The farmer asked, “What ya gonna do with him?”

Rodney replied, “I’m going to raffle him off.”

“You can’t raffle off a dead donkey!” said the farmer.

“Sure I can. Watch me. I just won’t tell anybody he is dead,” said the boy.

A month later the farmer met up with Rodney and asked, “What happened with that dead donkey?”

Rodney answered, “I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at two dollars a piece and made a profit of $900.

The farmer asked, “Didn’t anyone complain?”

Rodney said, “Just the guy who won. So I gave him his two dollars back.”

A lady was picking through the frozen turkeys at the supermarket but couldn’t find one big enough for her family.

She asked a shop assistant, “Do these turkeys get any bigger?”

“No ma’am,” he replied, “they’re dead”.

The policeman got out of his car to speak

to the kid he stopped for speeding, who rolled down his window.

“I’ve been waiting all day for you,” said the policeman.

The kid replied, “Yeah, well I got here as fast as I could.”

A truck driver is driving along on the freeway.

A sign comes up that reads, ‘Low Bridge Ahead’.

Before he knows it, the bridge is right ahead of him and he gets stuck under the bridge.

Cars are backed up for miles.

Finally, a police car comes along. The cop gets out of his car and walks to the truck driver, puts his hands on his hips and says, “Got stuck, huh?”

The truck driver says, “No, I was delivering this bridge and ran out of gas.”

Taxiing down the tarmac, the jetliner abruptly stopped, turned around and returned to the gate.

After an hour-long wait, it finally took off.

A concerned passenger asked the flight attendant, “What was the problem?”

“The pilot was bothered by a noise he heard in the engine,” explained the Flight Attendant, “and it took us a while to find a new pilot.”

Two men got out of their cars after they collided at an intersection. One took a flask from his pocket and said to the other, “Here, maybe you’d like a nip to calm your nerves.”

“Thanks,” he said, and took a long pull from the container.

“Here, you have one, too,” he added, handing back the whiskey. “Well, I’d rather not,” said the first. “At least not until after the police have been here.”

They say that Christopher Columbus was the first economist. When he left to discover America, he didn’t know where he was going; when he got there he didn’t know where he was, and it was all done on a government grant A company feeling it was time for a shakeup, hires a new CEO. Determined to rid the company of all the slackers and make an impression the new boss sets out on a tour of the factory.

He notices a guy leaning on a wall. The room is full of workers and he wants to let them know he means business!

He walks up to the young fellow and asks, “And how much money do you make a week?”

Undaunted, the young fellow looks at him and replies, “I make $300.00 a week. Why?” The CEO then hands the guy $300 in cash and screams, “Here’s a week’s pay, now GET OUT and don’t come back!”

Feeling pretty good about his first firing, the CEO looks around the room and asks “Does anyone want to tell me what that idiot did here?”

With a sheepish grin, one of the other workers mutters, “he was the pizza delivery guy form Domino’s.”
