CAPES presents: APSO Connect Session - COID Amendment Update

19 February 2026

Dear APSO Member

The Compensation for Occupational Injuries and Diseases (COID) Amendment Act has significantly shifted the legal and operational landscape for employers, HR teams, and health and safety practitioners. Non-compliance exposes organisations to heightened risk through stricter record-keeping expectations, stronger safety obligations, and penalties. This 2-hour webinar provides a practical breakdown of what has changed and what you need to implement immediately to remain compliant.

You will receive clear guidance on the Act’s expanded coverage, including the inclusion of contractors, domestic workers, and gig-economy workers, and how this affects your internal policies and workforce risk profile. We will unpack the revised compensation framework, including updated benefits, assessment rates, and calculation methods, and clarify the new reporting timelines and digital submission requirements that impact HR and compliance workflows. The session also covers updated procedures for medical practitioners and insurers, as well as the new return-to-work and rehabilitation provisions designed to promote reintegration of injured employees.

FREE for APSO Members!
