Mandatory requirements include submitting financial viability documentation (last three fiscal years' P&L and Balance Sheets), proof of Professional Indemnity ($5M minimum), Public Liability ($5M minimum), and Workers Compensation insurance. Compliance with WHS obligations and, if applicable, holding an ACT Labour Hire License are also required. 📅 **Key Dates:** This is an open, continuous intake scheme.
