Business / Provider Profile
The Aged Care Workforce Industry Council (the Council) is the first leadership group of its kind in Australia’s aged care industry. The Council is committed to creating a better, more sustainable aged care system across Australia with a clear focus on the consumer. It is working with Industry, Government, employees and consumers to ensure the workforce is suitably skilled and able to deliver safe, consistent and high quality care services to older Australians, irrespective of setting.
Why us
Our remit
Our remit is to provide a unified body to oversee, coordinate and sequence the implementation of the 14 Strategic Actions in Australia’s Aged Care Workforce Strategy ‘A Matter of Care’.

Whilst delivering on ‘A Matter of Care,’ The Council will also adapt its work in light of the recommendations of the Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety which largely support the work of the Council.

Our Vision
The Council’s vision is to transform the capacity and capability of the aged care workforce so workers feel valued and supported to deliver consistently high-quality care to older Australians.

Our Purpose
The Council’s purpose is to galvanise effort across the sector and governments to build and equip the aged care workforce to deliver the care that older people, their families and carers expect.

Our Goals
As we work towards our vision, we reinforce and promote six core goals:

Person-centred
Adaptable
Sustainable
Contemporary
Transformative
Harmonised


The Council’s Strategic Plan sets out our remit, direction, and goals and the steps we will take to oversee and sequence the implementation of the national aged care workforce strategy.
