Have you been considering joining an Industry Association?

Throughout the last 18 months, Australian Cabinet and Furniture Association (ACFA) has seen a number of new members join, demonstrating the way ACFA partners with members to help them with running their business.

If you have been considering becoming an ACFA Member, take advantage of the recently-launched Pro-Rata Membership Rates. This allows businesses to join at reduced prices and experience the benefit of being an ACFA Member for themselves.

For more than 70 Years, ACFA has been the Australian industry association for furniture, cabinet making, kitchen & joinery.

ACFAWith a variety of lockdown restrictions implemented on how trade operates in different states, the ACFA Team jumped into action, providing regular updates, links and summaries of how businesses could operate in a safe and compliant manner.

Recently, a member provided this feedback sharing why they choose to be an ACFA Member.

“ACFA’s service is better than other Industry Organisations I have been a member of, as it’s more specific to our industry. I simply phone whenever we need information, especially on lockdown issues currently. It’s been really easy and the e-alert updates have been amazing.” Bianca – Ladel Kitchens

Outside of COVID-19 updates, another key service that members regularly use is ACFA’s Business Resources. These cover Award Rates & Allowances, Leave Entitlements, Workplace Policies, and Home Building Contact templates. Central to ACFA is the personalised service that they bring to their members. Unlimited phone calls to their team of HR Advisors means we’re ready to work through your specific scenario to get the best result.

ACFATraining is another core function of the Association. As a Registered Training Organisation, ACFA is able to provide Workplace Apprenticeship to the next generation, developing tailored training plans and provides one-on-one contact with their Trainers. In Victoria, their local Builder Registration Mentorship Program is guiding businesses through the VBA Registration Process. With other training programs in the works, ACFA are working towards providing specific content to boost our industry.
