Risk Collective partners with People 2.0 to Deliver End-to-End Workforce Compliance for Australian Employees
Australian employers are juggling more than ever. Labour hire rules, worker classification, migration obligations, WHS including psychosocial risk, injury management and employment relations all keep shifting. Add cross-border hiring, Employer of Record and Agent of Record arrangements into the mix, and it becomes harder to know who is responsible for what, where the risk sits, and whether the business is actually covered.
That's the gap this partnership is built to close.
We've teamed up with People2.0 to give Australian employers and staffing firms a more complete path to compliance, combining global employment infrastructure, EOR and AOR capability, and migration compliance support with Risk Collective's on-the-ground legal, WHS, injury management and employment relations expertise.
What each side brings
People2.0 brings global Employer of Record (EOR) and Agent of Record (AOR) services, helping staffing firms and enterprises correctly classify workers, process payroll, and meet compliance obligations both locally and internationally. For Australian partners, that means the employment infrastructure to scale without taking on unnecessary legal or financial risk.
Risk Collective brings the Australian, on-the-ground side: work health and safety, workplace injury management and return to work, employment relations, and commercial legal advice all under one roof. We work with employers, industry bodies, and peak body members including those affiliated with RCSA and APSCo, helping them move from reactive compliance to clear, prioritised systems that actually hold up to audit.
Why it matters
Until now, getting full coverage across global payroll, worker classification, WHS and employment relations has typically meant juggling multiple advisors and providers. This partnership means staffing firms and enterprise clients, whether already working with us, with People2.0, or neither, get access to a connected solution instead of a patchwork of separate engagements.
As our Directors Martin Richardson (Legal) and Amy Towers (WHS, People & Compliance) put it: “less time reacting, more time in control.”
