Welcome to our latest podcast episode, where we'll be addressing one of the biggest challenges facing farm businesses today: employing people. As farms grow bigger, they need more hands on deck, and many farmers are discovering that managing people is a very different skill set from managing a farm. In fact, good people management can mean the difference between success and failure for a farm business.
In the next few episodes, we'll be tackling this issue head-on, covering everything from recruitment to HR management and OH&S. Our guest today is Danielle McNamee, the founder of Processworx, has been helping farm businesses manage this increasingly complex area of their business for over 10 years.

Danielle will also share how good HR and OH&S systems can attract and retain good staff in your farm business. If you're struggling with employee management or OH&S on your farm, or you just want to see if you're on the right track, then this conversation is for you.
