Aaction Traffic

Aaction Traffic commenced business in March 2007, although the Company Principals have been engaged in the Traffic Control Industry for over a decade.

Aaction Traffic has grown into a profitable business with an estimated turnover in this current financial year of some twelve million dollars; a healthy balance sheet with all vehicles and equipment owned outright by the company, and very little in the way of general creditors. Apart from the Managing Director, we have a full time accredited Work Place (Construction Elective) Health and Safety Officer, Quality & Safety Manager, a Planning and Permits Manager, Operations Manager, Business Development and Marketing Manager, two Work Place(Construction Elective) Health and Safety Representatives, three Planning and Permits Coordinators, three management trainees and six Office/Accounts staff.

Aaction Traffic has completed the rigorous auditing process of the JAS-ANZ to become fully accredited in ISO 9001:2008 Quality Management since the winter of 2009 and AS/NZS 4801 Occupational Health and Safety since the winter of 2010. Through this process, and regularly scheduled internal and external audits, Aaction Traffic assures the highest standards in safety and quality assurance.

All of our employees engaged in major construction projects are paid in accordance with our Enterprise Bargaining Agreement with the BLF & CMFEU. This Agreement has been in existence since the formation of Aaction Traffic Services Pty Ltd in April 2007 and was renewed in November 2011. BUSS, BERT, CIPS and BEWT are paid monthly for the benefit of our employees. We have also received our DEEWR compliance certification.

All of our Traffic Controllers have been accredited to level 2 and most to level 3 with the Queensland Department of Transport and Main Roads and we also have Traffic Managers accredited to levels 4. A number of our Controllers have received training from Energex and have attained M31 Electrical Spotters Accreditation for works near power lines. All Traffic Controllers are supplied with a full compliment of Personal Protective Equipment and hi-viz / reflective uniforms.

Aaction Traffic has a fleet of 45 vehicles equipped with rotating and hazard lights, flashing arrows and reversing beepers. Log books are maintained in each vehicle.

Our proudest achievement is the stability of our workforce, where the majority of our Traffic Controllers have been employed in continuous service to our Principals for some 10 to 11 years. Our Staff are looked after and regularly consulted by Management. Training in all aspects of Traffic Control is a continuing obligation of Aaction Traffic and through our active membership of the Traffic Management Association of Queensland we ensure that we are cognizant of the latest methods and procedures within our Industry. Workplace Health and Safety is of utmost importance and our accredited Workplace Health and Safety Officers ensure that the Company has policies and procedures in place to absolutely address all issues arising.

We have Third Party/Public Liability in place in the sum of $20M with Lloyds of London. Within the same Policy they also cover us for Professional Indemnity Insurance in the sum of $2M. Workcover Insurance is current for all of our Employees.

As a member of the Traffic Management Association of Queensland., we are very involved in working with the Queensland Department of Transport and Main Roads and have recently received pre-qualification and registration from the Queensland Department of Transport and Main Roads for Traffic Management Registration.
