Suncorp employees in Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria face a bleak Christmas, learning yesterday that their jobs will head offshore in December, said the Finance Sector Union today.

“This is just the beginning of large scale offshoring by Suncorp. I fear we will see an exodus of insurance jobs from Australia unless Suncorp’s plans are halted,” said Acting FSU National Secretary Chris Gambian.
The FSU has received confirmation that jobs and processes within Recovery and Settlements and 50 staff in the Claims Centre Payments team will be the first targeted by Suncorp’s offshoring program.

“We are in the midst of an offshoring epidemic.  There is something seriously wrong when some of Australia’s biggest, most profitable companies insist they can’t afford to keep employing Australians, said Chris Gambian.

“This week one of our biggest banks, Westpac, put offshoring jobs back on the agenda on the same day they announced their biggest ever profit.

More homeowners who are underwater on their mortgage should be eligible now to refinance through the government’s Home Affordable Refinance Program (HARP) as a result of changes to the program announced today.

Introduced in 2009, HARP aims to help people who have been unable to refinance because they owe more on their home than it’s worth. However, homeowners whose mortgage exceeded 125% of their home’s market value were ineligible for the program — but that’s changed. The loan-to-value cap has been lifted.

Other program changes announced October 24 by the Federal Housing Finance Agency include the following:

– Elimination of certain risk-based fees for borrowers who refinance into shorter-term mortgages

– Elimination of the need for a new property appraisal when there is a reliable automated valuation model estimate by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac

– Extension of the program until December 31, 2013 (from June 30, 2012)

To be eligible, homeowners must have a mortgage owned by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac (look up your loan) and must be current on their mortgage payments.

I would like to suggest a number of ways by which you can create a reputable website of your own and the significant roles a website of your own can play in your business.

Creating a website of your own is paramount to your personal jobs and businesses in the sense that your own website represents your personal address on the web.It simply serves as your identity online through which people who might want to contact you can reach you easily since they can check the contact details on your site.The following points might be helpful:

(1)There is a software called web page maker which is programmed for designing a powerful website without the knowledge of programming or html language.Infact everything has been done for you in the software.As you insert your texts,shapes,colours as well as others, the software automatically generates html codes for the contents on your website.So it is obvious that you can create your own website easily and in minutes.I am not, by any way, an affiliate of the software manager but I have been using this software for a while now and I usually spend few minutes creating a complete web page.Just try and get it from a software selling shop and start building web pages right away.It is just very easy for everyone even if you are not a computer guru.

(2)Another aspect of creating a web page is the area of making it visible to people everywhere.This is by way of signing up with a recognised web hosting company and then host your website to be seen on the web.You can even search for free hosting companies.It is advised that you may sign up for a paid hosting account so that you will be rest assured that nothing happens to your website.This is simply because most of the free hosting websites block the accounts of their users often without any prior notice.

(3)You can also create your web pages by using wordpress which is more powerful than the web page maker mentioned earlier.With the wordpress you can design a web page with a data base which is being used by big organisations and schools.This is most suitable with wordpress.I must assure you that schools and organisations are increasing at geometric rate everyday since technology keeps advancing daily.Please make sure that your web pages are designed to attract those that will assess them because the more attractive your website is, the more traffic you get from it.

(4)Now let us talk about the benefits you can derive by designing a website.In the first place,when you succeed in driving massive traffic to your site everyday, definitely you must see returns from visitors as they will take actions on what they have seen on your website which matters to them.Some may begin to order for products on your site if the website contains products to be sold.

(5)Through a well designed website you can advertise businesses which belong to you directly or which you are probably promoting for the simple reason of earning income for yourself.In short,whatever you may think of doing ,whether online or offline, the best way to reach people is to have an active website which serves as your personal address to people.

(6)Finally, within your website,you can even create a link where you can chat with those who visit your site.Also you can create a search box somewhere on your website where visitors who visit your site can search for any information regarding whatever product they may want to order for.
