We are all fed up with Covid-19 dominating our lives - the serious impacts of a deadly disease and the extreme difficulties of producing and selling a rapidly growing and fragile crop when the rules change daily, state borders can snap shut any time and a single positive case in the workplace can potentially cost a business thousands of dollars.

Join us to learn how businesses can navigate this rapidly changing and challenging environment, minimising risk to both employee health and economic viability.
