How to register your workplace
You can register your workplace today!
Someone within your workplace will have to set up the ‘Workplace’ page and then they can set up ‘Teams’ under your workplace so that team members can join. Members can also join the workplace and fundraise as individuals if they don’t want to join a team under the workplace.
For example, a workplace may set up a workplace page called ‘Workout Gym’ and have different departments as the ‘Teams’, such as Trainers, Marketing, HR, IT, Legal, executives, etc.
If you need support in setting up your organisation teams, please get in touch with our team at workplaces@oceanstooutback.org.au.
