Purple Playground
HR Membership

Your all-in-one membership for HR guidance, practical tools, and purpose-led support that grows with you.

Foundational memberships are now open

The Purple Playground HR Membership is almost here!

We’re building an easy-to-navigate online membership portal that gives you access to a curated library of practical, plug-and-play resources, guides, tools and expert support – so you can find what you need, when you need it, and take the guesswork out of HR. You’ll also have access to our team for guidance on which templates to use, how to tailor them to your organisation, and support when navigating tricky people situations.

Everything You Need to Build a People-First Business

For time-poor business owners, leaders, and solo HR people inside small and scaling businesses who genuinely care about doing the right thing by their people – but often feel unsure or overwhelmed by Fair Work compliance.

The HR Membership offers genuine support from a team of HR professionals, giving you access to our collective brains trust through a flexible membership model. We remove ambiguity, build competence, deliver practical outcomes, and create peace of mind to help you stop winging it and start leading with confidence.

It’s the tools, guidance, and expert brains you can lean on without the cost or complexity of a full-time HR team.

We’ll give you the certainty, speed, confidence, and expert support you need to lead well and build legally compliant, people-first workplaces – without the stress, second-guessing, or having to go it alone.

Think of us as an extension of your own team – ready to assist when you need us.

HR Membership Membership FAQs

Everything you need to know before you join

What is the minimum term?

Our minimum membership term is 12 months, and there’s a good reason for that. 

We’re not about quick fixes or tick-a-box templates. The HR Membership is designed to support your business across a full year so we can help you plan ahead, tackle challenges as they come up, and build solid, sustainable people practices that actually stick. 

Think of it like a gym membership – using it once won’t get you results. The real value comes from showing up consistently, building habits, and seeing progress over time. And we’re here to spot you along the way. 

Still in your first 12 months? That part is locked in – just like a gym membership. It helps us keep things fair and consistent for all members, and gives you the time to see real value.

We know business needs change, and while we’d love to be your HR sidekick forever, we won’t make it awkward if it’s time to move on. Just give us 30 days’ notice and we’ll wrap things up properly, so you’re not left in the lurch.

Yes, you can. We know business needs evolve, and we’ve built the HR Membership to flex with you. The only thing to keep in mind: if you’re still within your initial 12-month commitment, you can upgrade anytime, but downgrades will apply after that period ends. No tricky contracts or hidden fees – just transparent support that scales with your business. 

We get it, sharing is caring. But when it comes to logins, it’s a no from us. 

Each HR Membership membership comes with a single login for security, version control integrity, and nerdy compliance reasons. But don’t worry – if you’ve got leaders or team members who also need access, just let us know. Depending on your membership level, we can set up additional users or upgrade your membership to include broader access. 

We’re all about making it easy for the right people to get what they need – without turning your account into a free-for-all. 

It depends on your membership level – but rest assured, you’ll get the right level of support for where your business is at.  Here’s a snapshot of how you can tap into our HR expertise: 

Weekly Live Q&A Sessions:  Available for ALL HR Membership members 

Join our weekly 30-minute Q&A to talk through your people challenges in real time. Prefer to stay behind the scenes? You can pre-submit your questions via the portal. It’s a safe, supportive space to get clarity, build confidence, and keep your people plans moving – knowing you’ve got an expert in your corner. 

Monthly Webinars:   Available for ALL HR Membership members 

Our members-only, 45-minute monthly webinars dive into timely HR topics that align with the season – from performance reviews and hiring tips to award updates and compliance changes. We focus on hot topics, practical advice, and forward-thinking insights you can use straight away. 

Dedicated Support : 

Membership Level 1 = Access to paid support as per our Price List (available on request). 

Membership Level 2 = Our Portal is full of templates and resources to save you time by giving you a head start, not a blank page. As part of your membership, you can book time with your dedicated HR Business Partner to get advice, talk through next steps, and lightly tailor our ready-to-use templates to suit your business. We’re here to be a sounding board and guide – so you’re never starting from scratch or tackling HR challenges alone. 

Membership Level 3 = Inclusions as per membership level 2 with the addition of your nominated People Leaders being able to access your dedicated HR Business Partner for advice and guidance related to their team.

Not quite – and that’s by design. 

Our HR Membership membership is built to support the people leading your people. 

Each membership level is designed to support the business owners, managers, and anyone responsible for people and culture. We focus on building capability where it matters most, so your people leaders are confident having the crucial conversations, making proactive decisions, and handling the tricky stuff before it becomes a problem.   

That way, instead of relying on us to step in every time, your internal leaders become equipped to manage their teams with clarity, confidence, and compliance, with us in their corner when they need backup. 

Please note that each of our 3 membership levels support different leaders within your organisation, so please read the overview for each membership level to determine which level works best for you. 

Our team is available Monday to Friday, 9am to 4pm AEST (excluding Queensland public holidays). We don’t work weekends or send 2am emails – we practice what we preach and value the right to disconnect (for you and for us!). 

Here’s what level of support is included based on your membership level: 

Level 1: HR Compliance 

For Level 1 members, the nominated account holder can contact us for support. Any support or documentation provided will be charged as per our price list (available on request).  

Level 2: HR Habits 

Personalised support is included for the nominated account holder in your membership at no extra charge.  

Level 3: HR Impact 

Personalised support is included for the nominated account holder and business leaders in your membership at no extra charge. 

Nope – we don’t charge per head. That’s not our style. 

Your HR Membership membership is priced based on the level of support you need, not how many people are on your payroll. We know growing teams go through busy seasons, and the last thing we want is for you to dread adding new team members because it’ll hike up your HR bill. 

That said, if your business grows significantly or your needs shift (think: new locations, extra leaders, or major structural changes), we’ll chat with you about whether your current level is still the right fit. No surprise invoices – just open conversations and the right support as you scale. 

Super simple – choose your membership level and pay securely by card or direct debit. All memberships are set up on a monthly basis, keeping things flexible and easy.

We sure do! We know everyone has different needs, and we’re here to help. 

If you’ve got a specific HR challenge or project (like a policy overhaul, a tricky employee issue, a restructure, or a one-off compliance audit), we can jump in and help on a fee-for-project basis.  

Just reach out, tell us what’s going on, and we’ll let you know how we can help (and what it’ll cost). No lock-ins, no fuss – just expert support when you need it.
