The next chapter starts now. With its recent rebrand, Regional Workforce Management is moving forward as part of PeopleIN - not just with a new name, but with a stronger commitment to strengthening its PALM Scheme services as Australia’s largest provider. So, what’s next? Enhancing the Health and Well-being Program for PALM scheme workers to ensure they have even greater access to the resources they need to thrive. This includes: ✅ Expanding access to mental health and counselling services ✅ Strengthening cultural support networks ✅ Providing additional health and well-being workshops As Pa Enari, RWM’s Cultural Welfare Officer, explains: “Each year, we continue to build on the Health and Well-being Program, strengthening the support we provide to our workers. It’s about more than just physical health - it’s about creating strong routines, promoting good nutrition and fostering a sense of community that helps them thrive both at work and in their daily lives.” Backed by Australia’s largest workforce solutions group, RWM is ready for what’s ahead.

Over 9,000 people in Queensland experience homelessness on any given night.   It’s a growing crisis - one that demands attention and action.    As part of our ongoing International Women’s Day conversations, we supported Coffee Brigade, a Brisbane-based charity that has spent over 54 years providing warm meals, coffee and direct assistance to people experiencing homelessness and disadvantage - basic necessities many of us often take for granted.    Their support helps recipients build trust and confidence, enabling them to access housing, healthcare and other essential services across Brisbane.   We were honoured to hear from Billie Murphy, General Manager of Coffee Brigade, who shared powerful insights into the realities of homelessness in our community. Her words were a stark reminder that support, advocacy and action must extend beyond a single day.   We’re committed to keeping this conversation going and supporting initiatives like Coffee Brigade to ensure more people feel seen, supported and cared for - one meal, one conversation and one act of kindness at a time.   If you would like to join us in donating, you can do so below!  💜 https://lnkd.in/gDBQ4z4W

International Women’s Day isn’t just a date on the calendar - it’s a powerful reminder that progress happens because of the women who lead, challenge and break barriers every day.   This year PeopleIN is marking IWD 2025 by shining a light on the incredible women who inspire us - professionally and personally. We invited our team to share stories and photos of the women who have made a difference in their lives, from colleagues and mentors to friends and family.   Because recognition matters. And when we share these stories, we amplify the voices of the women who shape our workplaces, industries and communities.   Here’s to the women who inspire, lead and make a difference - today and every day. INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY (MARCH 8)

This week Regional Workforce Management (RWM), part of the PeopleIN, welcomed Hon. Patrick Nisira Vice President and Minister for Commerce, Trade, Industry and Economic Development and Mr. Alex Kerangpuna Secretary of the Department of Commerce, Trade and Economic Development from the Autonomous Region of Bougainville to our office. The visit provided a valuable opportunity to discuss the Pacific Australia Labour Mobility (PALM) scheme and its role in driving economic growth, workforce development and regional connections. As a trusted and approved PALM Scheme provider, RWM remains strongly committed to working closely with partner countries to create meaningful employment pathways that benefit both home communities and Australian businesses. PeopleIN looks forward to supporting these ongoing conversations and strengthening partnerships that create opportunities for workers, industries and communities across Australia and Bougainville. #PALMScheme #WorkforceDevelopment #RegionalPartnerships #PeopleIN #RegionalWorkforceManagement Brad Seagrott Thomas Reardon
