Bruce plays an active roll representing the members of the AAQ including development of a number of codes of practice. Members should be aware of the new services offered free on the AAQ Web Site. A number of useful management tools are available for download to AAQ members. These include a full set of documents that can be used for the induction of new employees, including workplace health and safety documents. These were developed in partnership with FarmSafe Queensland. Other documents include the farm management plan developed with Queensland National Parks, which will help members when applying for a 3 year damage mitigation plan. These as well as other web services for members will be covered during this presentation. |
