Description

Is your school carrying payroll compliance risk you can't actually see? Most schools can't. It’s not because their finance and payroll teams aren't capable, but because the exposure sits in places day-to-day processing was never designed to catch: Award and Enterprise Agreement interpretation, leave accrual set-up, superannuation fund data, legacy system configuration.

Join this complimentary webinar, presented by Cole School Experts and designed specifically for School Business Managers, Finance Managers, HR professionals and Principals, to understand what that exposure typically looks like and how an independent Payroll Compliance Health Check surfaces it before it becomes a compliance issue or a multi-year back-pay liability.

This session marks the launch of the Payroll Compliance Health Check for AISWA member schools, shaped specifically around the needs of WA Independent schools.

This webinar is your opportunity to find out whether your school is exposed and how to get the kind of independent, expert help most schools don't realise they need until it's too late. Register now to secure your place.

Outcomes

By attending this webinar, you will:

  • Understand why payroll compliance risk exists even in well-run schools and why it's usually invisible from the inside, regardless of how capable your team is.
  • See real, evidence-based patterns drawn from Cole School Experts' cross-school engagement data, including the most consistent finding across every completed payroll review.
  • Learn what's involved in an independent, sample-based Payroll Compliance Health Check; from Award and Enterprise Agreement compliance to leave accrual, superannuation and STP reporting.
  • Understand how common configuration and Award/EA misapplication issues can create back-pay exposure going back years, and why it so often goes unnoticed until it's tested directly.
  • Find out exactly what a Health Check report delivers; a risk-assessed, recommendation-driven report built to inform your Board or Leadership Team.
  • Discover the practical steps to book a Health Check for your school, including what information is needed, typical timing, and what to expect from start to finish.
