COVID Scams and Workplace Safety

  • Summary

  • Beware of some convincing scams around and how to check your workplace really is a safe place to return to.

    Australians lost over $630 million last year to scammers and during times of COVID, the scams have become even more sophisticated. We hear about the current ones that many of us have become victims to. 

    For many people, it’s time to return to the workplace but you need to ensure that all precautions are taken to keep you safe and we’ll chat to an expert in that field. 

    Some industries have been so badly impacted by COVID that they no longer offer any employment opportunities and returning to your old job may not be possible.  Maybe now is the time to consider a new path and we speak to a careers advisor who will give you the confidence to try something new.
