Our membership represents about 36% of the State's employment by remuneration. SISA pre-dates the WorkCover Corporation – it was first incorporated on 3rd August 1984 as the Employer Managed Workers Compensation Association (EMWCA). Although it was known as SISA for many years beforehand, the name was officially changed from EMWCA to SISA in November 2005. SISA is recognised as the sole representative organisation for self insured employers. It provides its member organisations with assistance and support in their interactions with the workers compensation scheme and promotes best practice in the prevention and management of workplace injuries. SISA’s objectives are to promote, develop and support the interests of its members by communication and liaison with WorkCover, Government, unions and other organisations in regard to self insurance. Self insurers in South Australia cover a diverse range of industries, including pillars of the State economy such as winemaking, ship building, mining, steelmaking, automotive manufacturing, aged care, banking and utilities. The State public sector is also self insured. SISA proudly represents the common interests of over one third of the employment of South Australia’s working people. It remains a respected and authoritative voice in the governance of occupational health and safety and workers compensation in South Australia and beyond.
