Pay or renew your WorkCover insurance premium

Ways to pay your premium

You can choose to pay your WorkCover premium as a one-off payment or in instalments using your insurance login to Online Employer Services (OES).

If your premium is $1,000 or less, you need to pay the full amount as a one-off payment by 1 November each year. You'll receive a discount if you pay your premium in full.

You can also use your OES account to update your estimated rateable remuneration for the year, then recalculate your premium at any time throughout the year.

There are a number of ways to receive a discount if you pay in full.

5% discount

Pay in full before 14 August and receive a 5% discount.

3% discount

Pay in full before 1 October and receive a 3% discount.

You're eligible for the early payment discount even if your premium is the minimum amount.

Monthly instalments
