On behalf of its members, the Insurance Council of Australia (ICA) is coordinating expressions of interest from domestic and NZ tradespeople to assist with flood recovery and rebuilding efforts in New South Wales and Queensland following Tropical Cyclone Alfred. This initiative aims to connect skilled tradespeople with insurers seeking additional support to assist customers impacted by Tropical Alfred.
Tradespeople can register their interest, and provide details of their expertise, and availability through the portal, which will be accessible to insurers who are members of the ICA. The ICA is also engaging with Queensland authorities on Automatic Mutual Recognition of qualifications to ensure the rapid on-boarding of interstate and trans-Tasman surge workers when Queenslanders are most in need.
We encourage all qualified builders and tradespeople to express their interest to help communities recover as quickly as possible.
