WorkCover Queensland will not increase average premium rate

WorkCover Queensland has announced that the average net premium rate target for the 2025–26 financial year will remain unchanged. 

The rate will remain at $1.343 for each $100 of wages, after applying discounts, thereby continuing to present exceptional value for businesses in Queensland while upholding a vital safety net for injured workers statewide, according to WorkCover.

WorkCover Queensland maintains one of the lowest average premium rates across Australia.

It further endorses a robust return-to-work rate, enabling nine out of ten Queenslanders injured on the job to return to work post-injury.
