Get $1,000 Back: The SafeWork NSW Small Business Rebate & Roof Edge Protection
Running a small business in the construction industry means balancing tight budgets with the absolute necessity of keeping your team safe. Falls from heights remain the number one cause of fatalities on NSW building sites, which is why safety isn’t just a requirement, it’s a priority.
The good news is that the government is helping you foot the bill. At Australian Scaffolds, we are proud to support the SafeWork NSW small business rebate, a program that gives eligible business owners up to $1,000 back when they purchase safety items, including our premium roof edge protection products.
Here is everything you need to know about the rebate, how to check if you are eligible, and how to claim your $1,000 when you shop with us.
What is the SafeWork NSW Small Business Rebate?
The SafeWork NSW small business rebate is a government initiative designed to help small business owners and sole traders purchase equipment that improves workplace health and safety.
The program offers a rebate of up to $1,000 to cover the cost of eligible safety items. This isn’t a loan; it is money back in your pocket to ensure your workers go home safely at the end of the day.
Am I Eligible for the Rebate?
Before you purchase your equipment, you need to make sure you meet the criteria. To qualify for the SafeWork NSW small business rebate, you must:
-
Be a registered business owner or sole trader with an ABN.
-
Employ between 0 and 50 full-time equivalent workers (or 1-50 for charities/not-for-profits).
-
Produce goods or provide services within NSW.
Most importantly, you must complete an eligible SafeWork NSW education activity (such as a free webinar or inspector visit) within the 12 months prior to applying.
Use Your Rebate for Roof Edge Protection
One of the most effective ways to utilize this funding is by investing in high-risk control measures. Falls from heights are a major focus for SafeWork NSW, making roof edge protection a prime candidate for the rebate.
At Australian Scaffolds, we manufacture and supply industry leading edge protection systems right here in our Riverstone warehouse. Our systems are compliant with Australian Standards and are designed for quick installation and maximum durability.
By purchasing a Roof Edge Protection Kit from us, you aren’t just ticking a compliance box; you are investing in a system that can be used job after job to prevent serious injuries.
