Government & councils
Navigating complex schemes, diverse roles, and public accountability
Government and council employers manage one of the most diverse workforces in Australia — from desk-based policy officers to outdoor maintenance crews to emergency service responders. Each role carries different injury risks, and the claims process often involves additional layers of union consultation, public scrutiny, and scheme complexity.
