The Queensland Government has announced changes to the Queensland worker’s compensation scheme – WorkCover.
From the 1st July, 2014 the Queensland Worker’s Compensation scheme will have the cheapest average rate in the Country for businesses. If you are a Queensland business owner, you will be able to take advantage of the following:
- the average premium rate is reducing by 17%
- over 93% of Queensland businesses are having their claims history wiped clean under a simpler premium model.
- greater flexibility to pay the premium by instalment.
