Liability for Casual Work and Workers' Compensation
The Narrogin Municipal Council asked if the Workers' Compensation Act could be suspended for casual labour. The Government Actuary clarifies that a householder who hires casual help may or may not be liable depending on whether the work is a one off or regular. If the worker is engaged intermittently, even infrequently, the arrangement may still be casual and the householder could avoid liability. If the work is for the employer's trade or business and performed regularly, the employer is liable for accidents. Examples illustrate liability when a householder hires casually for a single task versus ongoing weekly or biweekly work.
