Manage your workers' portable long service (building and construction)

Introduction

The Long Service Corporation (LSC) administers a portable long service scheme for building and construction workers in NSW. The scheme allows eligible workers in the industry to work for different employers, or as contractors, and qualify for a long service benefit.

If you employ workers on wages or salary to carry out building and construction work in NSW, you must:

• register as an employer
• keep books and records, such as time sheets and lodge Start Notices and End Notices for employees commencing or finishing work with you
• submit an Employer Return annually.

The LSC portal lets you manage portable long service transactions and information online. You can:

• update your contact details
• add or remove workers
• complete annual service returns
• notify of intent to pay a worker's long service payment
• confirm worker service
• register as a new employer
• request support.
