Step 1: Eligibility for self insurance

The first step in the self insurance process requires an organisation to be declared eligible by the Minister for Employment and Workplace Relations.

The organisation must lodge a written application to the Minister.

The eligibility process is managed by the Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations and all enquiries relating to this process should be directed to:

Director, Safety Rehabilitation and Compensation Act Team

Phone: 02 6121 7038 or 02 6121 7572

The Minister considers each application on its merits. For further information on the guidelines used by the Minister to assess applications, see Ministerial guidelines for Assessing Section 100 Applications.

Once an applicant has been declared eligible to apply for a self insurance licence, it may then submit an application for a self insurance licence.
