I love the services that Suzanne and her Plug In HR team at Performance Advantage provide. In a world where running a small business feels often very displaced from any real help, Suzanne has been there for me in a number of ways. She has given me confidence to take action and helped me feel empowered to take control and address any under performance without any fear. She provides a great service at real value for business owners. More...

What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
Following the Australian Government announcement on 30 September 2022 the restrictions on how we work and live have been updated in Victoria in response to COVID-19.
The up​dated restrictions came into effect from 14 October 2022.
Staying COVID-safe remains important. We must all follow these steps:
Follow the Victorian Government's measures on how to stay safe.
Wear face masks where required or when you cannot safely socially distance.
Practice COVID-safe hygiene protocols.
If you're feeling unwell and have COVID-19 symptoms (no matter how mild), follow the required options for getting tested.
If you test positive on a rapid antigen test, you need to report your results online.
