✨ We are delighted to welcome Gillian Welsh from Working Women Queensland to the IAASysters Brisbane 2026 speaker lineup!✨

As Director of WWQ, Gillian brings serious expertise to a topic every woman in the workforce needs to understand. A lawyer with over a decade in the legal assistance sector, her work has focused on access to civil justice for victim-survivors of domestic and sexual violence, and people experiencing intersectional oppression.

WWQ is a statewide service providing free legal, industrial, and social work support for financially disadvantaged women and gender diverse people experiencing workplace issues, and has been doing so for over 30 years. Having them in the room for IAASysters Brisbane feels exactly right.

Presenting with confidence, managing nerves, handling tough questions - she makes it look easy and then teaches you how.

🚨 MEMBER ALERT: new scam compliance requirement for some telcos 🚨

Under the new Scams Prevention Framework, telco providers will need to be members of the Australian Financial Complaints Authority (AFCA) for scam-related dispute resolution.

This applies to telcos providing voice and messaging services (excluding those delivered wholly over the internet).

AFCA membership is required by 1 September 2026, but applications must be submitted by 14 August 2026 to allow time for processing.

Telecommunications may be essential to modern life, but how can it be regulated as an “essential service”?

Calls for tougher rules and heavier penalties give the impression that regulation can guarantee every network, device and online service will work, all the time.

In her latest blog, IAA CEO Narelle Clark challenges the claim that telecommunications is self-regulated, examines where responsibility begins and ends, and asks whether more regulation will improve reliability or simply add cost and complexity.
