Episode 33: Managing conflicts of interest

ROCpod was the monthly podcast of the Registered Organisations Commission, now abolished. The obligations for registered organisations remain unchanged. If you need further information please contact the new regulator - the Fair Work Commission - on 1300 341 665 or email regorgs@fwc.gov.au

In this month’s podcast we talk about a hot topic in our jurisdiction – conflicts of interest and how to successfully manage them.

You may think that you’ll never encounter a conflict of interest, but given the reach of our social, personal and business contacts, conflicts of interest are relevant to all officers of registered organisations.
