We are well into the New Year and it is very pleasing to hear that members are busy . The support our association receives from our members and associate members is very much appreciated .
As association members it is important that we focus on providing quality work as well as many other requirements that make us professional painters .
The need to follow our code of ethics , meet our OHS obligations , market our business and work with our clients to provide quality outcomes is all part of being a professional painting contractor . It is also important that we provide a guarantee for the work we undertake on behalf of our clients .
Waste Paint Trial
The proposed waste paint trail that was due to be introduced in Victoria in 2012 has been postponed due to the parties involved unfortunately not being able to
come to a satisfactory agreement . It is disappointing that a lot of work had been undertaken to put the structure together and that the reduction of paint waste in Victoria should have been supported by all parties within our industry . My concern with us not going ahead under the introduction of a voluntary scheme will create a situation that the Federal Government will look at introducing a compulsory scheme .
Industry Standard for the Surface Coating Industry
The industry standard that was launched by the M . P . A Victoria has now been supplied to members of the Master Painters Association Queensland The feedback from Queensland members has been very positive . .
