Victorian flood recovery - for business
The Department of Human Services coordinates a range of assistance from State Government and not for profit organisations for businesses in emergency recovery situations, such as those experienced following a flood.
The 2011 floods impacted businesses and agriculture heavily across the state. As a result, a range of commonwealth, state and local government agencies are working together to help with their recovery efforts.
Help available:
- Financial support for business and agriculture in the form of grants and gifts that can assist with the task of cleaning up and rebuilding
- Information for farmers to help retain apprentices, find financial counsellors and the flood recovery employment program
- Advice and information on cleaning up after the floods or restoring the land
- Information on insurance claims for damage caused by flooding
