Vision
Fair and productive Australian building and construction workplaces.
Mission
The ABCC delivers impartial and comprehensive workplace regulation and advice.
Goals
1. Ensure effective compliance and responsive enforcement
The ABCC is the national full service regulator in the building and construction industry. We ensure effective compliance with Commonwealth workplace laws.
We investigate and litigate across the full range of workplace relations civil remedy provisions using both insistence and persuasive enforcement tools. By consistently striving to improve our regulatory actions and initiating new delivery models we provide efficient workplace relations enforcement for the benefit of both the building and construction industry and the broader community.
2. Implement a comprehensive regulation and advisory service
Education and advisory services are an essential function of our office. We work to provide relevant, timely and accessible information that allow industry participants to easily identify what they need to do to comply with workplace laws.
By delivering clear and accurate advice to all in the building and construction industry we increase voluntary compliance levels and advance industry productivity.
3. Deepen engagement with stakeholders
The ABCC is committed to open and accountable communication with stakeholders.
To offer meaningful regulatory services we must maintain a strong appreciation of the concerns, views, needs and expectations of people in the building and construction industry. The ABCC prioritises facilitating an ongoing two-way dialogue between the agency and the industry to support good workplace relations practices in Australia’s construction sector. By deepening our engagement with stakeholder groups we offer increased public value and improve our capacity to act as a responsive regulator.
4. Supporting and resourcing our staff
Ongoing investment in our staff, systems and processes is the foundation of a successful ABCC. Integral to this is the establishment of a culture that facilitates the success of the vision and mission of the organisation.
