Essential lawn care
Mowing and edging requested as part of the agreed household assistance scope.
Gardening after a workplace injury
Register a Sydney gardening-assistance enquiry connected with a NSW workers compensation claim and approved domestic support.
What you can request
The injured person, family member, case manager or insurer contact can send the initial request. We review the property, tasks and capacity before confirming documentation, approval and billing requirements.
In Sydney, lawn or garden care may form part of NSW workers compensation domestic assistance when it is medically supported and approved by the insurer in the care plan.
In NSW, this support is generally called workers compensation domestic assistance and can include approved lawn or garden care. It must be medically supported, connected with the workplace injury and included in an insurer-approved care plan. This form records an enquiry only and does not represent insurer or SIRA approval.
Mowing and edging requested as part of the agreed household assistance scope.
Weeding, manageable pruning and upkeep based on the approved tasks.
Claim contact, authorisation and billing requirements are confirmed before funded work.
Recurring gardening can be requested where approval and capacity remain in place.

Useful before you enquire
Domestic assistance can include lawn or garden care when it is medically supported, reasonably necessary because of the workplace injury and approved in the insurer’s care plan.
Workers compensation domestic assistance is the current terminology. Some people still search for WorkCover gardening, so we mention the older generic term without presenting it as the current NSW authority.
No. The responsible insurer must approve the service and care plan before claim-funded gardening begins.
