Local Government Mutual Services (LGMS), incorporates the three self-insurance schemes of Local Government in Queensland; LGM Liability, LGM Assets and LGW Workcare.
The schemes provide a successful vehicle for mutual ownership and control by Local Government of their liability, property and workers compensation exposures, and have ensured cost stability that would not otherwise be achieved. In addition to the broad cover available, each scheme also provides a wide range of risk management resources and assistance to Members. JLT Public Sector as part of Marsh & McLennan Companies (MMC) is the appointed manager of the schemes and is the premier provider of insurance services to Local Government in Australia, including insurance broking and advice, claims management services and risk consulting.
