WORK COVER

A worker has the right to make a claim for work related injuries under the current legislation, The Workplace Injury Rehabilitation Compensation Act.

Often an injured worker requires time off work due their injury and can be placed on weekly payments supported by a doctor’s certificate. The injured worker will most likely also require medical and like expenses and this application can be done at the same time of their initial WorkCover application.

If an injury is severe you may be entitled to a lump sum payment pursuant to section 98a where the degree of impairment will be calculated according to AMA Guidelines and determined upon assessment.

Furthermore, if the injury is ongoing and can no longer no work a serious injury application can be made where one will receive a further payment for compensation. All personal injury matters could possibly negotiated and settled prior to a Court Trial through mediation if settlement terms can be agreed to by all parties.

TAC CLAIMS

If you have been involved in a transport accident you may be entitled to compensation against the transport accident commission (TAC) such as weekly payments, medical and like expenses and/or lump sum compensation.

PUBLIC LIABILITY

An individual has the right to compensation for pain suffering and economic loss if he or she suffers an injury that occurred at a public place and the owner or occupier of premises was negligent at maintaining a safe environment, an example would be slipping over at a shopping Centre due to water on the floor. The injury will need to be assessed and calculated within AMA Guidelines and the individual will have rights to compensation and can also obtain a further lump sum payment if there is a serious injury certificate obtained.

TOTAL PERMANENT DISABLITY CLAIMS

If you are Injured or sick and can no longer work you can apply for a TPD claim.
Most people will have a TPD Insurance component as part of their superannuation policy (check with your superfund).
In order to qualify for the TPD Insurance benefit you will need to meet the superannuation’s requirements which can vary typically medical/doctors reports and supporting application, once you the claim has been approved you will be paid within 30-60 days.

SEXUAL ABUSE

A person who is victim to sexual assault or sexual harassment at work, school, church organisation, social group etc could be entitled to compensation for pain and suffering and economic loss if they suffer physical injury and/or psychiatric impairment as result.
