How to contact us

Employers can contact us for reporting support via these channels:

ChannelDetail

Support request Employer Portal

(we recommended using this channel)

Employers that are registered to report with WGEA should create and manage support requests within the Employer Portal by selecting the ‘Requests’ tab followed by 'Create a support request'.

 For reporting support, we recommend contacting us with a support request via the Employer Portal for the following reasons:

  • The request form includes fields for you to enter information that will assist us in actioning and responding to your request.
  • The request will be automatically attached to your organisation's record.
  • Contacting us through the Portal demonstrates that you have been authorised to act on behalf of your organisation.
    • This mitigates the need for us to contact you to check the organisation you are acting on behalf of and whether you are authorised to act on their behalf.

Refer to Employer Portal access to gain access to the Employer Portal and act on behalf of your organisation.

Our service standards

We aim to respond to enquiries within 5 business days. While reporting is underway, we may need more time due to a high volume of enquiries. The banner on the homepage of the Employer Portal, visible once you log in, gives updated waiting times for reporting-related enquiries.

Due to the level of analysis required for data-related queries, we aim to respond to these queries within 10 business days.

For further information, refer to our service charter.
