August 2021

With the new financial year underway, I would like to take a moment in this Viewpoint to remind readers of the benefits that come with MTA Queensland membership, namely:

  • Services – FREE expert advice on Workplace Relations and Industry Compliance matters
  • Training – discounts on a range of non-accredited short courses
  • Support – savings and information through our Corporate Partners, webinars and micro-credentials
  • Innovation – stay at the front of cutting-edge information through MTAiQ

Of course, we are always looking to improve the benefits we offer our members and are open to feedback on what services or assistance we don’t offer that businesses need going forward.

Another benefit to membership is advocacy. Our members are encouraged to provide feedback for our industry backed representations on issues affecting them. We are currently seeking feedback on the issue of CTP for Rental Vehicle operators, which is set to rise by 20% as a result of all Classes being merged for Taxis, Booked Hire and Rentals from 1 October 2021. Please provide feedback to [email protected].

Finally, it has been a pleasure attending the latest round of divisional committee meetings and witnessing some insightful discussions take place. These meetings represent an opportunity to connect with businesses and set the agenda on issues and opportunities of the division. All members, whether on the committee or not, are encouraged to attend.
