Who does the scheme cover?
Information about cleaning work on Commonwealth land
Work on Commonwealth land is not eligible for service credits under the Contract Cleaning Industry Long Service Leave (CCI LSL) scheme. From 1 January 2023:
- employers must not record cleaning work performed on Commonwealth places on future quarterly service returns
- levies are not payable on wages paid for cleaning work performed on Commonwealth places and employers will need to ensure that they do not add this work to quarterly returns.
Fulltime, part-time and casual cleaners employed by a business or self employed as a contractor to undertake commercial or domestic cleaning work under contract such as in offices, shopping centres, schools and hospitals.
Contracts may be verbal or written.
Not all cleaners are covered by the scheme. For example cleaners directly employed by an office, shopping centre, school or hospital to perform cleaning duties are not covered.
Workers who perform cleaning work on Commonwealth land are not eligible for service credits under the scheme.
