Fitness Passport
Fitness Passport is a discounted workplace health and fitness program, giving you and your family unparalleled access to a wide range of gyms and pools throughout the state, all at the fraction of the cost of a regular gym membership.

Our program has access to more than 380 gyms and pools across Queensland.
Annual Flu Vaccination
Queensland Rail employees can combat flu season with a free flu vaccination either on-site or by using a Vaccination Voucher if unable to attend an on-site location.
rt health
rt health is the health insurer that’s been looking after the Australians who keep Australia moving for more than 130 years. Their vision is to support rail, transport and energy workers so you never have to worry about managing your health concerns alone. Queensland Rail employees receive one month free health insurance when they join on Hospital and Extras, and a waiver of all 2 and 3 month extras waiting periods for Extras only.
Financial Wellness
At Queensland Rail, we understand that financial stress can be detrimental to the mental and physical health of our people. We partner with QSuper, MOVE Bank and Converge to offer a wide range of information, tools and support.
