In Australia, it’s the legal obligation of employers to provide their workers with a working environment that is safe and without risks to health, both physical and mental. However, even when employers comply with our country’s strict health and safety legislation, workplace accidents still occur that can lead to serious consequences.
Accidents in the workplace are fairly common and can happen at any moment. If you were injured at work or have a pre-existing injury or illness that was worsened by your workplace, you may be entitled to workers’ compensation.
At its most basic definition, workers’ compensation is a compulsory statutory form of insurance for all employers in every state and territory in Australia. Each state and territory have its own workers’ compensation scheme, but all are designed to provide financial assistance and medical benefits to workers in the event they suffer a work-related injury or illness.
However, there are instances where the employer may deny the worker of these benefits, leaving injured workers deprived of the resources they need to make a full recovery from their injury. In cases like this, the best thing to do is to seek legal action.
