Labour Hire Compliance Plan

Labour Hire Compliance, Without Starting From Scratch

Applying for a labour hire licence involves more than completing an online form.

You need to clearly explain how your business will engage, pay, supply and support its workers. You may also need to show how you will manage host clients, subcontractors, workplace risks, records and ongoing compliance responsibilities.

For a security provider, those arrangements must also fit the practical realities of recruiting, licensing, deploying and managing security personnel at client sites.

The Labour Hire Compliance Plan gives security labour hire providers a structured, industry-specific starting point. It helps you turn your proposed or existing arrangements into a clear compliance plan, without trying to piece one together from generic policies, regulator questions and guesswork.

Built around Victorian requirements and security industry risks, the plan can also be adapted for security labour hire providers operating in other Australian jurisdictions.

What This Plan Helps You Do

• Clearly describe your labour hire business and worker supply model
• Explain how workers, host clients and subcontractors will be managed
• Document employment, payroll, safety and recordkeeping controls
• Identify the systems, records and supporting information your business may need
• Prepare a more complete and consistent labour hire licence application
• Avoid building your compliance plan from a blank page

This is not a generic labour hire policy with “security” added to the heading. It has been developed around the way security providers recruit, employ, supply and manage licensed personnel.

What You Get

Your downloadable preparation pack includes:

• An editable Labour Hire Compliance Plan in Microsoft Word
• A detailed User Guide
• Preparation Questions to help gather the required business information
• Important Completion Notes
• Example content, prompts and clearly identified fields for customisation

The User Guide explains how to approach the document and what you should consider while completing it. You are not left with a template and expected to work out the rest yourself.

All files are supplied together in a downloadable ZIP folder immediately after payment.

Designed for Security Labour Hire Providers

This product is designed for:

• New security businesses preparing a labour hire licence application
• Existing security companies expanding into labour hire
• Operating businesses applying for a licence and documenting their current arrangements
• Victorian applicants requiring detailed local content
• Interstate security providers seeking an industry-specific framework they can adapt

It is particularly useful for businesses that supply, or intend to supply, security personnel to work within a host client’s business or workplace.

The strongest jurisdictional detail relates to Victoria. Interstate customers can adapt the plan but remain responsible for checking the requirements applying in their state or territory.

The template must be customised to reflect your actual business, workers, systems and supply arrangements. It should not be submitted unchanged or used to describe controls that are not genuinely in place.

Choose the Support That Matches Your Business

Template Only

For operators who are confident completing and adapting the plan themselves.

You receive the complete downloadable preparation pack, including the editable plan, User Guide, Preparation Questions and Important Completion Notes.

You are responsible for customising the plan, checking the requirements applying to your business and preparing your final application.

Editing Assistance, New Business

For a new business establishing its labour hire systems and preparing its first application.

This option includes the complete preparation pack plus practical assistance adapting the plan to the business you intend to operate.

It is suited to operators who have not yet commenced labour hire activities and need help documenting their proposed systems, responsibilities and operating model.

Editing Assistance, Existing Business

For an operating business that needs the plan aligned with its current practices.

Existing businesses generally require a broader review because the document must reflect established arrangements across areas such as workers, clients, payroll, contracts, records and subcontracting.

The existing-business option accounts for the additional work required to understand the current operation, identify inconsistencies and align the plan with the systems and evidence already in place.

Editing Assistance Includes

For operators who want support, clarity and peace of mind.

If you choose Editing Assistance, we will contact you after purchase to begin the review process.

• • Email and text support during the document preparation and application phase, ending at lodgement or 60 days from purchase, whichever occurs first
  • One submission review call of up to 15 minutes, available on request by phone or online, to clarify the completed documents, the User Guide, submission or retention steps, and any remaining actions before lodgement
  • Coverage for regulator-requested changes to documents we have prepared after lodgement, where required
  • Practical support to help you complete the included documents accurately and submit them with confidence

Support is limited to the documents included with this product. It does not extend to broader business advice, legal advice or preparation of additional documents.

If further assistance is required, it can be provided through a separate consulting session.
