Supporting your Religious organisation
Quality, expert advice with a Catholic lens
We know that as a religious organisation it’s not always easy to balance your moral and religious obligations with business needs, particularly when it comes to major issues like restructuring a team.
We combine accurate, timely advice with Catholic social thought to help you find a suitable, yet compliant solution to your workplace needs.
We are here to guide and support you with simple Employment Relations questions, through to interpreting awards and dealing with misconduct. We see your matter through from beginning to end, including complex Legal Advice.
You also have access to resources such as contracts and policies, which we can help you adapt. We can provide advice on how to adhere to pay schedules and develop WHS procedures to ensure a compliant and safe work environment.
