CPD Points:

You are cordially invited to a combined VADR VARJ (Victorian Association for Restorative Justice) CPD .

A panel of workplace experts, Murray Bickerdike, Dr Anna Chapman and Zandy Fell, facilitated by Dr David Moore will discuss the topic “Responding more effectively to workplace grievance and other symptoms of stress”.

Currently psychological injury claims constitute 10% of the total number, although they consume around one third of the compensation budget, mainly due to long recovery times. Many in the field believe that the methods used to handle such claims  actually exacerbate stress and delay return to work. Our expert panel discusses ways in which they consider workplace grievances and stress can be handled more effectively in the short-term and reduced over time with more effective decision-making and dispute resolution.

Please note the starting time is earlier than usual. This panel presentation will start at 6:00pm and conclude at 7:30pm.

If you’d like to attend, please email admin@vadr.asn.au or president@vadr.asn.au. Please feel free to pass on details of the event to anyone you think may be interested
