Industry Compliance

When Your Business May Need COIDA or CIDB

Understand when construction or employment-related registrations may apply.

Business team discussing industry compliance requirements

COIDA and CIDB serve different purposes. The company’s activities, employees and the work it wants to perform determine which requirements may apply.

COIDA

Employers may need registration with the Compensation Fund and must meet Return of Earnings and assessment obligations to maintain a Letter of Good Standing where applicable.

CIDB

Construction businesses may need a CIDB contractor grade for public-sector construction work. The required class and grade depend on the type and value of work.

  • Confirm the correct class of works
  • Check financial and track-record requirements
  • Keep company and tax records current

Confirm before applying

An application or payment receipt is not the same as final approval. Requirements remain subject to the relevant authority’s verification.

Important

Requirements and processing times depend on complete documents, system availability and the relevant authority. This general information is not an official verification of your company’s status.
