On 1 September 2015, the regulatory and insurance functions of WorkCover are assumed by three new discrete organisations: the State Insurance Regulatory Authority (SIRA) for workers compensation regulation, SafeWork NSW for work health and safety regulation and Insurance and Care NSW (icare) for workers compensation insurance. The information on this website is still relevant and a new website will be available in the coming months.
