Rights
As a business owner, you have the right of decision making for each and every aspect related to your business’ activity and processes. You have the right to run a business in any manner, following any strategy, pending you are not violating any Australian laws. There is no limit to efforts invested to ensure success and increased business productivity.
You are free to implement new and effective business strategies that add new customers, and increase revenue in the competitive business era. Your business also has the right to refuse the supply of goods and services in certain circumstances.
Clients
Clients (or Customers if you’re selling a product) are the most important and valuable assets to any business. A business must supply top-quality goods and/or services to clients at reasonable prices, and communicate if and when commitments/capabilities change. No fake, dishonest and misleading advertisement should be presented before a potential customer. Also, there should be proper arrangements to handle customer complaints and requests, which you can request support for via the Creatives for Hire Feedback Hub.
Society and Environment
A business is a part of the community and hence it should contribute its part towards the welfare of the community. It should generate employment opportunities equally for all, especially in relation to perspective customers or employee’s protected attributes. A business must also aim to protect the ecological environment without contributing any type of damage like air or water pollution.

Contractors
Independent contractors provide agreed services under a contract for those services – you might consider yourself a Contractor! Contractors usually negotiate their own fees and working arrangements and can work for more than one client at a time. Independent contractors are often called contractors or subcontractors. More information about the rights of independent contracting can be found HERE.
