The Tasmanian Automotive Chamber of Commerce (TACC) has served the automotive industry in Tasmania since 1928.

There had always been a long standing and mutually supportive relationship between TACC and the Victorian Automotive Chamber of Commerce (VACC).

TACC successfully lobbied state government on behalf of members for many years, but times were changing and in 1999 TACC and VACC were amalgamated. This merger offered members a more diverse range of services, while still maintaining a Tasmanian perspective on local issues.

Today we are dedicated to the promotion, representation and preservation of member businesses to local, state and federal governments, as well as the media, consumers and the community.

Coronavirus: Keeping the workplace clean

14 April 2020

As well as staying safe in and around vehicles, VACC members should be vigilant when it comes to other areas of the workplace including office, lunch and waiting areas.

It is the employer's responsibility to implement processes to ensure the following:

  • Workers wear gloves when cleaning and wash their hands thoroughly, or sanitise with an alcohol‑based hand sanitiser, before and after wearing gloves
  • Clean frequently touched areas and surfaces several times a day with a detergent or disinfectant solution. Areas can include Eftpos equipment, handrails, tables, countertops, door handles, elevator buttons, sinks and keyboards
  • Workers wipe down personal property that comes to work, such as sunglasses, mobile phones and tablets with a disinfectant solution
  • Areas in which visitors and customers frequent are never crowded and are kept clean, including wiping down chairs after use.

To help, the VACC OHS&E Unit has developed an easy-to-use checklist for automotive businesses to ensure the safety of their workers and customers, and assist in minimising the risk of spreading the virus further.
