Compliance across ANZ is no longer periodic — it’s continuous. 

Recent underpayment cases have reinforced that payroll risk rarely stems from intent. It often begins with weak foundations: complex pay rules, manual workarounds and disconnected systems that rely on clean-up after payroll runs. During exclusive webinar hosted by Dayforce in partnership with HRD, leading experts will share practical strategies to help you navigate today’s compliance challenges with confidence. 

In this session, you’ll learn: 

• Why compliance risk often starts upstream in time and pay data 
• How Payday Super changes the compliance rhythm 
• What stronger controls and auditability look like in practice 
• How responsible AI can surface anomalies earlier — without replacing human accountability 

Speakers:

• Jason Low, CEO, TAPS
• Natalee Leach, CEO and Founding Director, Payroll Collective
• Maggie Plantzos, Solution Lead, Group Elephant
• Ben Kropman, Director Solutions Advisory

As AI matures, the question for leaders is no longer whether work will change, but how much — and where. While some roles will be transformed, others may remain surprisingly stable. Understanding this distinction is critical as organisations rethink workforce strategy, skills investment, and organisational design.

This session looks beyond HR’s role at the table and focuses on how AI is reshaping talent across the enterprise — from frontline to corporate, from specialists to leaders — and what HR teams are learning as they help the business adapt.

In this session, you’ll learn:

• Which roles and skills are most likely to change as AI becomes embedded
• Where AI is augmenting work versus replacing tasks
• How HR teams are partnering with the business to redesign roles, skills, and workforce plans

You’ll leave with:
A grounded view of how the workforce is likely to evolve as AI matures — and what leaders should prioritise now to prepare.
