Contracts and Compliance

HIA’s kitchen and bathroom members have asked for information that is concise, easy to understand and directly relevant to running a business in the kitchen and bathroom industry.

HIA has now developed a series of Kitchen & Bathroom Information Sheets to assist members in understanding their compliance obligations – information such as:

• Do I need a licence?
• What licence do I need?
• How do I get a licence in another state/territory?
• Do I need to have a written contract?
• What rules apply to advertising?
• What rules apply to business names?
• What rules apply to advertising?
• Do I need to undertake induction training?

HIA has also developed Information on Contracts addresses frequently asked member questions such as:

• What insurances do I need to have on a K&B Contract?
• How much can I take as a deposit & how do I get paid?
• When am I able to claim an extension of time?
• Do variations need to be in writing?
• What if the owner is contracting their own specialist trades?
• What happens if the client does not pay a progress stage?
• If I have not been paid can I take back the materials that I have installed?
