As the Chief Executive Officer, I want to thank you for your continued trust in ACIRT. For more than 30 years, ACIRT has been the construction industry’s trusted safety net – established by unions and industry to support workers and their families when work is unavailable.
As we look ahead, we are entering a new era focused on stronger performance, greater transparency, and ensuring ACIRT remains the right fund for you.
Delivering Value and Leadership
Every year, ACIRT pays a distribution to members. Strong investment performance and our profits-to-members approach mean that every dollar earned after operating costs is returned directly to you. With 25 years of experience across finance, insurance and superannuation, I’m focused on delivering disciplined stewardship and clear, accountable leadership. My priority is to protect and grow the fund so it continues to support your work, your family and your long-term financial wellbeing. Our Commitment to Your Future As the industry evolves, our commitment remains the same: long-term stability, strong member protection, and decisions made in members’ best interests.
We are also lifting our transparency and governance to the highest standards. In 2026, ACIRT will become fully compliant under ASIC regulations, bringing oversight and accountability comparable to the country’s largest financial institutions.
We will communicate more clearly, report more openly, and hold ourselves to the standards you expect. Our goal is simple: to remain the redundancy fund of choice – Australia’s Most Trusted Redundancy Fund.
Thank you for your continued trust. I’m excited about what we can achieve together in the years ahead.
Yours sincerely,
Dascia Bennett
Chief Executive Officer, ACIRT
