RAFFWU is currently registered as an incorporated association, not an employee organisation, due to "industry coverage restrictions". As such, RAFFWU is currently unable to obtain Right of Entry permits. RAFFWU is able to be heard in dealings with the Fair Work Commission in numerous proceedings in its own right including as bargaining representative and as a concerned union in Award Review proceedings. They are also able to represent employees in an individual capacity and have been involved in the negotiation and termination of many enterprise bargaining agreements which involved hearings in the Fair Work Commission.
