In order to make a workers compensation claim, you must:
- Be injured at the workplace or while undertaking employment duties; and
- Your employment duties significantly contributed to your injuries.
You may still make a claim even if:
- You were employed on either a casual, part-time or full-time basis
- You were on an intermission or work break
- You were working overseas or interstate
- You were traveling to or from work
When Can I Make a Claim?
A claim must usually be made within 3 years of the accident, but this can vary. Please do not delay in getting advice as you may lose your right to a claim.
