Utilising an insurance broker
It may be beneficial to use an insurance broker to negotiate a workers compensation policy with an insurer on your behalf.

Insurance brokers currently operate in the Western Australian scheme without legislative oversight by WorkCover WA, however, it is important everyone operating in the scheme adopts a shared language, integrated approach, and proactive commitment to upholding the values of integrity, collaboration, and customer service.

WorkCover WA’s Insurance Brokers Principles and Standards of Practice is a cohesive set of service expectations to ensure insurance brokers provide high quality workers compensation service to employers.
