ACC is accountable to all New Zealanders. You can view ACC’s accountability documents here, showing our strategy, reports and agreements with the Government.
Introduction
These documents report on how we are working to:
- prevent injuries
- ensure clients receive timely treatment and rehabilitation
- deliver lost earnings compensation for clients unable to work due to injury.
The Strategic Plan 2007 – 2012 shows ACC’s broad vision for an injury-free New Zealand and our overall approach to realising this vision through to 2012. The other accountability documents are:
- agreements between ACC and the Government
- annual reports against performance.

Annual Report
Yearly reports are produced by ACC and reviewed by the Government. They confirm whether ACC has achieved the goals outlined in the Statement of Intent and met Government performance standards.
Service and Purchase Agreement
The Service and Purchase Agreement sets out Government expectations for ACC services. It defines the quality and quantity of services to be purchased or provided by ACC while meeting legislative requirements. The contract also includes the setting of the funding that ACC receives from the Government for the treatment and rehabilitation of non-earners, and the conditions that ACC must adhere to when purchasing provider services for non-earners.
Annual Financial Condition Report
The requirement for ACC to produce an Annual Financial Conditions Report came into law as part of the Accident Compensation Amendment Act 2010. It is produced annually and will provide an assessment and advice on ACC’s operations, financial condition and liabilities. It also discusses the implications of any material risks to the Corporation that have been identified in the report.
