QLeave (Portable long service leave) is similar to regular long service leave but it is available only to workers performing building and construction work for employers in this industry.  It was introduced because many workers have to change employers regularly to maintain continuity of work in the building and construction industry.  These workers may never build a long service leave benefit with a single employer.  The scheme gives these workers the chance to build a long service leave benefit within the industry. 

The scheme is administered by the Authority. It is not superannuation.
