There are many factors to consider for getting a business ready for the anticipated increase in COVID cases as restrictions are eased and borders are reopened, ASGA said:

"What are the FairWork rules around a business mandating that staff are vaccinated and does this vary according across states and industries? What type of penalties apply if staff are terminated due to refusing to vaccinate and the termination action proves to be unlawful? What is a business owner’s obligations for protecting staff against COVID in the workplace? As a business owner, can you ask staff to provide proof of vaccination status?

"Warwick and Christopher will provide advice on these COVID issues and more as they might relate to the sign industry. The webinar will be moderated by Vernon Kingman from Kingman Strategies who has over 40 years of experience managing staff as the previous owner of the multi-award winning sign company, Kingman Visual."

There will be an opportunity for Q&A on the day but in case of time restrictions, questions submitted prior to the webinar will be given priority.
