Application | Compliance | Ongoing Support
Operating a labour hire business in Australia requires strict compliance with state labour hire licensing laws. Failing to hold the correct licence can result in significant penalties, contract termination, and legal action.
At DIA Taxation, we assist labour hire providers with Labour Hire Licence applications, renewals, and compliance support, ensuring your business meets all regulatory and financial requirements.
A Labour Hire Licence is a mandatory approval required for businesses that supply workers to host employers. Licensing ensures labour hire operators are:
Financially viable
Compliant with workplace laws
Meeting tax, superannuation, and payroll obligations
Fit and proper to operate
Licensing requirements vary by state and territory, and operating without a licence is illegal in regulated states.
Labour hire licensing is currently required in the following jurisdictions:
Victoria (VIC) – Labour Hire Authority (LHA)
Queensland (QLD) – Office of Industrial Relations
South Australia (SA) – Consumer and Business Services
📌 Even if your business is based interstate, you may still require a licence if you supply workers into these states.
At DIA Taxation, we provide end-to-end support throughout the licensing process:
Assessment of licence eligibility
Preparation of application documentation
Financial viability and compliance checks
Submission to the relevant authority
Director and key person disclosures
Fit and proper person declarations
Business structure and ownership review
Tax compliance confirmations
Licensing authorities often require evidence of:
BAS and GST compliance
PAYG withholding obligations
Superannuation compliance
Up-to-date tax lodgements
We assist in preparing accountant confirmations and compliance documentation to support your application.
Annual or periodic licence renewals
Changes to business details
Responding to regulator queries
Ongoing compliance support
You may require a licence if your business:
Supplies workers to another business
Engages employees or contractors placed with host clients
Operates in industries such as construction, cleaning, logistics, hospitality, agriculture, or security
📌 Host employers also have obligations to only engage licensed labour hire providers.
Application delays or refusals
Incomplete financial disclosures
Non-compliant tax or super records
Incorrect business structure information
Penalties for operating without a licence
