This week's podcast focuses on recent developments in the Australian insurance and transport sectors. The State of Queensland transfers its heavy vehicle compliance duties to the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator to reduce administrative burden and streamline regulations, aligning with other Australian states. As freight activity peaks over the summer holidays, the importance of implementing safety protocols for safer travel is emphasized. The transport sector is adopting proactive risk management strategies and advanced insurance products in response to increased motor collision risks. Usage-based insurance and telematics technology are being used for accurate tracking of driving behaviours and refining risk assessments. Lastly, superannuation funds face scrutiny for delays in processing mental health insurance claims, with substantial steps being made to improve procedures, transparency, and staff training.
