Business Australia is urging business owners and managers to get the necessary support to help them navigate the COVID-19 pandemic.

The recently launched free membership-based organisation is already supporting over 40,000 businesses across Australia.

To counter the economic impact of COVID-19, Business Australia is encouraging the 2.2 million businesses across the country to seek professional advice to get through the economic downturn.

In order to support businesses through this unprecedented challenge, Business Australia is continuing to offer free support to business owners and managers, but with a specific focus on navigating the COVID-19 crisis.

Businesses can access free information essential for owners and managers to understand their obligations as an employer through Business Australia’s new free COVID-19 content hub.

Resources include Business Australia’s Business Guide to the Coronavirus; an employer toolkit including key advice and policies to help businesses manage their people and working from home arrangements; free access to a business grants finder to understand available financial support; updates on the latest news affecting businesses in Australia and downloadable templates for communications with landlords.

“This is an incredibly challenging time for businesses in Australia. In a matter of weeks, business owners’ have had their worlds turned upside down due to economic impact of COVID-19," Business Australia chief customer experience officer Richard Spencer says.

"It is inevitable that we will see businesses severely impacted or unfortunately close as a consequence. We strongly encourage business owners and managers to seek professional advice to ensure that they have a fighting chance of riding out the crisis.”

“Our mission at Business Australia is to support businesses, of all sizes, through this challenging time by providing free support, solutions and education to help them maintain and sustain their business as best as possible.
