CASA Member Benefits
Membership
The measure of success of CASA will depend upon member participation and their input into its administrative and operational affairs.
Membership affords you the opportunity of sharing experiences and knowledge with your fellow contractor and supplier members.
Labour Relations
CASA will offer free advice on:
- Day to day labour situations.
- Advice on contractual agreements with employees.
- Disciplinary issues.
- Operational requirements.
- Trade Union advice.
- Contractual Matters
By its very nature the contractual cleaning process is a risk business, however, it is inevitable that members can occasionally find themselves in a dispute situation with clients, even after all reasonable steps have been taken to resolve the matter. CASA will then offer to assist to resolve the matter.
CASA will not become involved in any company dispute against another member company, unless both parties have formally put their case forward and its grievances are fully outlined in writing to the association. Following this, the matter will be investigated and evaluated resulting in an independent and impartial decision being offered.
Communication
The Association provides a communication forum, both formal and informal, for establishing co-operation between competitive member companies on matters of common interest, including the expression of views on industry matters.
CASA will regularly send out to members, a newsletter containing informative information.
