The WorkCover WA Board has approved use of industry premium
rating classifications based on the Australian and New Zealand
Standard Industrial Classification (ANZSIC) 2006 for policies
effective from 30 June 2018 (previously based on ANZSIC 1993). This
will ensure Western Australia has codes in place consistent with
other workers' compensation jurisdictions. Employers and
brokers will need to prepare for these changes before they come
into effect.
Introducing ANZSIC 2006
WorkCover WA has made minor modifications to ANZSIC 2006 where
industry classes have similar economic activities but a
significantly different workers' compensation risk. These
industry classes have been identified and allocated separate
industry codes (WA-specific codes). For a comprehensive list of all
ANZSIC 2006 industry codes, including the WA-specific industry
classes,
