Direct from the WorkCover Qld website:

The Workers’ Compensation and Rehabilitation Act 2003 (the Act) states that employers must insure their workers with WorkCover Queensland under an Accident Insurance Policy. However, directors, partners of a partnership, sole traders and trustees are excluded from coverage as they are not considered workers.

WorkCover Qld

What are your options as a director, sole trader, trustee, or partner?

If you meet the definition of a “working director” you can contact us for a referral a general insurance specialist about your current Work Cover policy.

To protect yourself outside of work hours we offer advice on tailored cover that doesn’t need to be underwritten each year.
