NDIS providers face unique challenges when a worker’s illness, injury or impairment affects their ability to perform their role safely. Decisions about capacity are not just employment matters — they directly impact participant safety, regulatory compliance and organisational risk.

Most property contracts start with a standard form, but it is the special conditions that often determine the real outcome. Poorly drafted or misunderstood special conditions can shift risk, create ambiguity, or render key protections ineffective. This session examines how special conditions operate across Australian jurisdictions, and where practitioners get caught out. It covers:
