During her time at the Australian Medical Association, Jaaden developed and presented training seminars both in-person and online, drafted employment contracts and policies and procedures, assisted with disciplinary processes, and conducted investigations on matters including bullying and harassment. Further, the role saw Jaaden represent members in the Fair Work Commission for unfair dismissal claims.
Prior to this role, Jaaden was an Industrial Relations Advisor for a multi-national organisation advising employers across Australia and New Zealand. This role involved conducting investigations and audits, issuing Breach Notices for non-compliance, and advising employers on the disciplinary process including termination of employment.
Recently, Jaaden has obtained a Cert IV in Work, Health and Safety (WHS), with this being a particular area of interest.
