This month's Pacific Business Boost webinar is all about protecting the business you've worked so hard to build. Jeff Lepa from Peninsula NZ joins us to talk through Employment Relations and Workplace Health & Safety — the practical stuff every Pasifika business owner needs but doesn't always have time to figure out.

Jeff is a proud Samoan based in Nelson, a former Manu Samoa rep (six caps in 2016), and someone who's owned his own business, so he knows firsthand the many hats owners wear. He now works alongside close to 7,000 NZ businesses through Peninsula, helping owners and leaders stay compliant, manage workplace challenges, and build safer, more confident workplaces — because for us, business isn't just work, it's family, service, and legacy.

📅 Thursday 17 September
⏰ 1pm - 2pm
💻 Online via Google Meet

Come along, bring your questions, and walk away with real clarity on keeping your business and your people protected.
