Workers Compensation Insurance
WE'VE GOT YOU COVERED
If you’re a business owner, it’s easy to assume that accidents won’t happen at your workplace. But the statistics say otherwise.
Employers are required by law to take steps to ensure their workplaces are safe. This includes having workers’ compensation insurance for all their employees.
Workers’ compensation insurance is compulsory for all employers in every state and territory in Australia. Each state or territory has its own workers’ compensation scheme, run by independent regulators, with rules differing slightly between each jurisdiction.

Case Study
Lin works on a production line, packing food products. After five years at the job, she develops carpal tunnel syndrome, which is painful and makes it impossible for her to do her job.
It was found that the repetitive work on the production line caused her condition. She needs to take time off work to rest, undergo physiotherapy and have corticosteroid medication.
Lin’s employer is able to claim on their workers’ compensation. They also took steps to improve their work safety practices, such as moving staff to different tasks and ensuring they take regular breaks during the day.
