people. We want to make sure we run an inclusive business.” That inclusivity is reflected in the company’s name – ‘Moonyah’ means ‘safe house’ in Aboriginal language. From the perspective of job seekers, that inclusivity is a big part of what sets Moonyah Group apart. Another big factor is their approach to finding work, which is a lot different than a lot of other labour hire companies: “The stereotype of labour hire is that it’s day-to-day and people don’t know where they’re going or whether they’ll have a job tomorrow,” Saia says. “When we started Moonyah Workforce, we thought ‘Let’s change that. Let’s chase the work so that when people come to us, they’ll have work for three months, or six months.’ We wanted to provide long-term employment.” Workers also choose Moonyah because of their emphasis on training and professional development. One of their key partners, for example, is ACTA Group – which is an established Registered Training Organisation whose purpose as a company is to deliver their clients’ documented and improved training experiences. Their service is detailed and flexible, and they are able to manage all aspects of the training process to the highest standard available in the industry. Like Moonyah, they are wholly Australian-owned and operated. Because they invest so heavily in training – and because they so genuinely care about their workers and want to help them improve their lives – Moonyah is able to foster a workforce of dependable people, who turn up to site well-presented and equipped, and ready to work. That’s part of what sets Moonyah apart from the MAY 2023
