As a NDIS provider in NSW there have been significant changes to our industry throughout the COVID pandemic. Having to navigate these changes whilst running a business is tricky. Since engaging with Now Actually I have been able to focus my attention on where it needs to be in business knowing that the HR strategy is taken care of. Just when we thought we could see the light, new changes to the Modern Award that we pay under were introduced. The change to the SCHADS award are complex, but I’m grateful that I’ve had Now Actually supporting me through this. I would highly recommend their services.
