State Authorities on occasion employ the services of contractors to carry out specialised work.
This State Indemnity Guidance (SIG) sets out risk management controls which should be considered when engaging contractors on both contracts of service and contracts for service. This SIG does not offer guidance on employment rights, term or conditions and should not be used for such purposes.
In line with the State Claims Agency's mandate to provide risk management advices to State Authorities, the following guidance in relation to the use of contractors is available below.
