Document background
The Workers Comp Affidavit is a crucial compliance document required in Australian jurisdictions to demonstrate adherence to workers' compensation insurance obligations. This document is typically required during tender processes, contract negotiations, or when engaging with government entities. The affidavit serves as a formal declaration under oath, where an authorized representative attests to the business's workers' compensation insurance coverage, compliance with relevant legislation, and accurate reporting of employee information. It may be requested by potential clients, government agencies, or principal contractors to verify insurance coverage before entering into business relationships or awarding contracts. The document's requirements can vary by state or territory, and it must be executed in accordance with local statutory declaration laws.
