All licensed labour hire providers must report annually on their labour hire activities to the Authority. This is a licence condition and is required by the Labour Hire Licensing Act 2018.
The Authority has worked with a number of Victorian Government agencies to support industry specific information during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. We are currently working with WorkSafe Victoria to provide up-to-date, labour hire specific information for providers and hosts.
Visit WorkSafe to find both industry specific COVID-19 information and guidance for all industries.
The Victorian Government announced Victoria’s roadmap to reopening. It outlines gradual steps to ensure that businesses can open safely and effectively. Metropolitan Melbourne and Regional Victoria have specific reopening roadmaps.
The Victorian Government has developed an Business Resilience Package to support businesses through the COVID-19 pandemic and recently announced a third round of the Business Support Fund.
Businesses across the state dealing with significant challenges posed by the global COVID-19 pandemic can access information by calling the Business Victoria hotline on 13 22 15 or visiting their website.
The Department of Health and Human Services has advice for businesses on what to do if any of your employees show symptoms of COVID-19 or test positive.
Use these instructions and tools to create clear policies and procedures for your business so you can keep your business, workers and customers safe by controlling possible outbreaks.
You should also be aware that employers must notify WorkSafe about a confirmed diagnosis of COVID-19 in the workplace.
The COVID-19 roadmap for reopening is now available in multiple languages for people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds.
The Department of Health and Human Services translated resources page also provides fact sheets and materials with the most up-to-date information and advice.
These resources can be downloaded, distributed digitally, displayed at worksites and, where appropriate, displayed in accommodation and on transportation provided by employers.
